Both were interviewed for BBC News, CBBC Newsround and Good Morning Britain, and did a fantastic job representing Scouting in New Cross.

Dwayne came to visit us last year in New Cross, to celebrate our newly opened Squirrel Drey.

We’d like to congratulate Dwayne on his new role. Dawyne is a fantastic role model for young people, and we’re proud to have him as our Chief Scout.
