District Commissioner Role

We are on the hunt for the next District Commissioner for Potters Bar & District Scouts.

So what is the role of District Commissioner?

This role holds to the title of District Commissioner (DC) and acts as a manager, supporting other volunteers to ensure the District runs effectively and provides quality Scouting to more and more young people in Potters Bar and the surrounding area.
