Our Change Team

Our change makers, change team will address the matters of governance, finance, and day to day operations that need to be actioned to enable our larger county to ‘go live’ and the County Board of Trustees and County Leadership Team take over management of the County.

Having a change team to discuss and decide on matters relating to the provision of the larger county on behalf of the existing two counties ensures that fair discussion and consideration is given to important matters before a decision is made. By helping to lay the foundations for the larger county the change team will assist in reducing the challenges the larger county faces and help to ensure a smooth transition from two counties to one.

Membership of the change team is made up from equal representatives from each county. It is important that as team members we are all aware of the responsibilities of the team and that we are participating in decision making from the point of view of the larger county and not representing districts or the two counties. All members are responsible for carrying out their role in the team with due regard to the purpose of scouting in the larger county.

Our change team will consist of two areas of focus: operational and governance:
