Katie is heading to South Korea to have a jamboree
A youth worker from South London is one of 950 adult volunteers that have been selected to represent the UK and help deliver next year’s World Scout Jamboree, as part of the International Service Team.
Katie Sturgess, 32, from New Cross said: “I am excited to have this new experience and looking forward to learning new skills as part of an international team of volunteers.
“The jamboree builds peace building and we need that in the world – I can’t wait to support this important educational event.”
The Jamboree will see 50,000 young people come together for a skills, cultural and adventure festival in South Korea.
In the summer of 2023, Katie will be part of a multinational team of adults who are volunteering to spend their summer holiday helping young people have an adventure of a lifetime, while thinking about global issues in a new light.
