Steve Donohue
County Lead VolunteerHi, I’m Steve the County Lead Volunteer for Devon Scouts.
Scouting has been a part of my life for over 40 years, whether that’s as a young member in Cubs and Scouts or, as an adult volunteer.
Over those years, I have worked as a leader with Beavers, Cubs, Scouts and Explorers and I can honestly say, Scouting has been the most rewarding thing I have undertaken in my life.
To be a part of the development of young people whether that’s through a 2-hour meeting, activities such as hikes, climbing, archery or, through residential experiences, it is an honour to have that opportunity.
I have had some fantastic experiences in my Scouting journey, most of which would not have been possible without Scouting.
So, whether It’s having the chance to speak to inspiring young people completing their Duke of Edinburgh Expedition on Dartmoor or, being invested as a leader into an Explorer unit whilst hanging upside down on a climbing wall, Scouting genuinely changes the lives of those who participate, and I am proud to be a member of this amazing movement.
Jane Batchelor
County AdministratorHi, I’m Jane and I’ve been the County Administrator for Devon Scouts for 11 1/2 years. I see my role as providing as much administrative support as possible to the County Team and Trustees to allow them to concentrate on “proper” Scouting. I’m also the first port of call for enquiries from the wider Scouting community in Devon as well as members of the public.
When I’m not sat behind my desk, I enjoy road cycling, running and I also sing in a Choir.
Emma Pacey
Deputy County Lead Volunteer
Emma Pacey – ACC International
I have been in scouting since 1989 when I started as a Venture Scout moving over from Rangers. At 18 I became a Beaver Leader which I did for 20 years, I then moved to scouts and became an Assistant Scout Leader.
I joined the training team as an Local Training Manager in 2004, at the start of the current training scheme, I did the role for 12 years before changing to Deputy Training Manager in 2016.
Additionally I became ACC International in 2023, I feel I am well placed to do this role having supported many overseas Scout trips over the years.
John Jarvis
Chair Board of TrusteesA member since the age of 11. Held leader roles and was ADC Scout Fellowship in Oxford before moving to Devon in 2007.
Have been ACC Scout Fellowship; County Commissioner; DC for East Devon and then Torridge
Other roles include: Award Nomination Supporter for Devon County, North Devon & Tiverton.
George Andrews
Team Leader Devon County Programme TeamHi, I’m George and I took on the role of ACC Explorers in 2022.
My history with Devon Scouts stretches back to 1996 when my family moved to Plymouth and I transferred into 19th Plymouth Cubs (having started my Scouting journey as a Beaver and a Cub in Weymouth). I went on to be a Scout, Explorer and Leader with the 19th. I then spent 4 years in the Midlands as an assistant Scout Leader at 88th Leicester before I missed the rolling hills and sandy beaches of home. I moved back to Devon, landing in Exeter, where I have been a Scout Leader at 2nd Exeter for 10 years and counting.
Most of my time in Scouting as an adult has been with the Scout section, but in 2017 I was selected as an assistant unit leader for the Devon & Guernsey Unit to attend the World Scout Jamboree in America in 2019. Unfortunately, before making it as far as America I took a new job which meant I was unable to get the time off to attend the WSJ. However, I had a great time meeting leaders and young people from all over Devon and helping them prepare for the adventure of a lifetime, and it really opened my eyes to some of the great opportunities out there beyond group level. For me that’s what Scouting is all about; creating opportunities and experiences. And as ACC Explorers it’s my role to try and maximise the opportunities available for our young people aged 14-18.
With the Scout Association currently undertaking the transformation project, reviewing both the adult volunteer journey and how we provide Scouting to 14-24 year olds, it is an exciting time to take on the role of ACC Explorers. I look forward to working with Sam, our ACC Network and Rory, our County Youth Commissioner, to make Transformation happen.
When I am not Scouting, I can usually be found on the baseball diamond, playing and coaching with Exeter Spitfires Baseball Club, or out pounding the country lanes of mid Devon, training for my next marathon.
Other roles include: Transformation Lead, Member of County Leadership team and Trustee.
Chris Solway
Team Leader Volunteering Development TeamHi, I’m Chris and have the honour to take on the role of County Volunteering Development Lead. My Scouting world started at 8 in a draughty Scout HQ in Chudleigh and 45 years later I am still working as an adult in Devon.
I have held appointments from Assistant Scout Leader, Local Training Manager, Manager & Supporter Trainer, Compass Superuser all the way down to District Commissioner & Deputy County Training Manager.
I have seen the world of Scouting evolve and completed more Woodbadges than I care to remember but have always supported others whenever I can. My Role of County Volunteering Development Lead means I am ideally placed to continue supporting. So, if you need help then give me a shout and see if I can assist.
Rory Fitz-Gerald
Member of the County TeamI’m Rory. I’ve been Scouting in Devon since the age of 7 with 1st Highweek Village Scouts, in Teignbridge, as a Beaver, Cub, Scout, Explorer & Young Leader, and now an Assistant Section Leader with our Scout section. I am also a member of the Teignbridge Ten Tors SASU, training young people out on Dartmoor to complete the same great challenge that I did whilst I was in their position, as well as assisting in the running of the Hurdlestone Challenge as part of the security team. On top of all this, I’ve recently being selected as one of leaders for Unit 77, one of Devon’s two WSJ units, an experience I cannot wait for! In my non-scouting time I enjoy the outdoors, football, spending time with my mates, playing video games & cricket, and my work in a small business called Lockabox.
Other roles include: Member of County Leadership team, Welcome Conversation team member and Trustee.
