Long-time Scouter and author James B Wood joins us to discuss his new book for current and prospective Scouting volunteers.
Podcast Topics
Scouter Ken is joined by James B Wood, a Scouter from the UK Scout Association. Having been “in the trenches” as a volunteer for many years, he took it upon himself to write a book - now out and available in print or on Kindle - for current and prospective Scouters alike, to offer them guidance on what to expect and how to navigate the challenges of leading Scouts.
The book is called It’s Only an Hour a Week. Because we all know it is never just an hour a week, don’t we?

Upbeat Rock (Good News), by Alex Grohl
Husband, Father, Scouter, Author
Father of three and Husband to a very understanding wife. Being a Scout leader means he has a healthy appreciation for satire and humour. A unhealthy appetite for fire-pits and any meat cooked over an open fire means that James thinks of himself as an adventurer, backwoodsman and all-round good chap.
