An Aberdeenshire-based Scout leader has been awarded the ‘Silver Acorn’ – one of UK scouting’s highest achievements – at this year’s Good Service Awards.
Chris Pinnell received the prestigious accolade which is awarded for distinguished service over a minimum of 20 years. Good Service Awards recognise members’ achievements and valued contribution to scouting.
Chris, who started his adult scouting journey as a venture Scout leader and commissioner in Falkirk and Hillfoots 40 years ago, said he was honoured to receive the award.
