Connect with our division team to get support with all aspects of guiding
Our division is led by a team of volunteers, known as the Division Executive, who are our Charity Trustees. They work together to support delivery of safe, fun guiding activities for everyone in Avon Valley South Division
The Division Executive is led by our Division Commissioner, Sally Deft.
Sally became a Brownie leader in Worcester in 1980 and moved to Keynsham in 1992.
She took a break from Guiding whilst having her family. Following three years in Scouts as a Beaver leader she decided to return to Guiding and joined Keynsham District as a leader. She has been Keynsham’s District Commissioner and decided to step down as unit leader in 2019.
Sally took on the role of Division Commissioner in July 2020.
