Graham Eden appointed as the new Area Lead Volunteer for British Scouting Overseas

June 21, 2024

I am delighted to announce the appointment of Graham Eden as the new Area Lead Volunteer for British Scouting Overseas (BSO). Graham will officially step into this role at the upcoming Gilwell Reunion, succeeding Nathan Prince. More details on the plans for this year’s BSO presence at Gilwell Reunion will follow soon.


Between now and Gilwell Reunion, Graham will work closely with Nathan to help with a seamless transition. This period will allow for a comprehensive handover to ensure continuity of the Area’s current work.


I extend my heartfelt gratitude to Nathan for his exceptional dedication and contributions over the past five years. His leadership has been instrumental in advancing BSO, and I wish him all the best in his future endeavours.


Graham brings a wealth of experience to this role, currently serving as the BSO Area Perception Team Leader. His extensive background includes various positions at the Group, District, and Region levels in Scotland. I am confident that his skills and passion for Scouting will greatly benefit BSO as the Area continues to grow and evolve.


I would also like to thank all those who took the time to consider and apply for the role, as well as the search team formed with volunteers from across BSO and a representative from the Boy Scouts of America's Transatlantic Council.


Please join me in welcoming Graham to his new position and in thanking Nathan for his outstanding service.

The 26th World Scout Jamboree will take place in Gdansk, Poland in the summer of 2027. The UK Scout Association has a long history of sending large number of Units (36 young people, aged between 14 and 18, and four leaders divided into four patrols) as part of a UK Contingent to attend World Scout Jamborees. The units represent each of the UK’s counties and countries/regions, with unit numbers be allocated based on the numbers of young people in each area.
