The elected periods stated are indicative of the periods the individuals were elected each year onto the former Executive Committee. Some have served for longer than this however due to changing recording systems are only recorded from 2015. As of 2024, the Group Scout Council voted to approve changes to align the Group with  Scout Association and the Charity Commission recommendations to elect for a three year term up to a maximum of three consecutive terms totalling 9 years. As these rules were introduced in 2024, all elected members consecutive 9 year limit reset from 2024. The exception to this is the Group Lead Volunteer who as an ex-officio member is appointed by the District Lead Volunteer following a selection process.

 


As per the partnership agreement between 4th Runcorn Scout Group and Mersey Weaver District on behalf of Cestrian Explorer Scout Unit, the Explorer Leader is invited to the Group Annual General Meeting, and Group Board of Trustee’s Meetings should it be appropriate for their attendance. The current holder of the role is Mark Haslam.
