How we run Glenny Wood
From January 2025 there is a change to the way the site is managed:-
Angus Wardle, who has been volunteering on site / leading in my absence since January 2018, is taking over the significant task of the day to day running of the site, ensuring it is well maintained, repaired, in good order and that the new development projects are built and available to use as well as managing any Sub Contractors employed.
Angus is now our Volunteer Site Warden..
Phil Savage has been our Volunteer Finance Manager for a two years and will now combine this with undertaking all the admin needed for the site along with arranging the annual safety checks, the site shop and badges.
Phil Woolcock our Volunteer Site Chairman with these changes will now have more time to focus on the overall site development, making best use of Glenny Wood, Woodland management, Bookings, Communications and Funding. Phil is retiring from Active Scouting from 30th June 2025.
