1st Oxshott Leaders
Your leaders are dedicated volunteers who make the sections run smoothly and work hard to inspire each young person in 1st Oxshott. Here is a little more about them...
Group Scout Leader: Clinton Askew
Clinton has been involved in 1st Oxshott since his first son started as a Beaver 11 years ago and he has spent eight of them as a Cub and Scout leader. One of his proudest moments was being part of Oxshott's Centennial St George's Day Parade in 2012. He runs a business in Fetcham and has seen all four of his children go through scouts.
Beavers: Helen Sullivan
Helen has been joined 1st Oxshott Scouts almost two years ago and for the last year has been the beaver scout leader where she is known as Red Squirrel. Helen loves outdoor activities and is always willing to test any family camp pioneering projects.
Cubs: Ian Pratley (Akala), Carl Rowell
Ian himself went all the way through Scouting, as did his father and brother. Both of his boys are in the Oxshott group and the family has lived locally for fifteen years. Ian has now been a cub leader for four years and especially enjoys giving the Cubs the opportunity to challenge themselves through fun, new stuff and teamwork.
Carl Rowell joined the team a few years ago and quickly catapulted himself to the "indespensible" category. Now an Assistant Cub leader, Carl gets involved in everything Scout-y, and has proved himself an expert in everything from fishing and campfire cooking to managing the welfare of stick insects. Look for him at Family Camp with his distinctive hat and shades combo!
Scout Leader, Deputy GSL: Andrew Burns
Andrew moved to 1st Oxshott in late 2014 as AGSL after 20 years as leader of a large Sea Scout Group in Kingston. He helps with the Scout section as well as assisting Clinton with Group matters. He has lived in Oxshott with his wife Ruth for 15 years and they have close involvement with St Andrew's Church and the Royal Kent School. Both his sons are now in the Group and share Andrew's interests in water sports, camping and hill-walking.
Section Assistant: Richard Bath
Richard Bath has been involved with scouts for many years. He helps with all sections and is a dedicated member of the team.
