We were saddened to hear of the passing of Alan Roy.

Alan was a great supporter of the Kilbryde Hike for many years and brought teams to compete in it most years. He was always great at encouraging more Scout groups to come and take part in what was often seen as a ‘Boys’ Brigade’ event.

His encouragement and support not just on hike weekends themselves, but in the background before and after events was greatly appreciated.

His passing will be a sad loss to the Scout movement and our thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends at this sad time.

Gone Home - Alan Roy

It is with great sadness that we have to inform you that our very active Explorer Scout Leader Alan Roy, passed away peacefully at Crosshouse in the early hours of this morning.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Trudy, Abbey and Katie at this really tough time.

Alan was an inspiration to so many that knew him and his legacy lives on in his family and his active and engaging approach to Scouting.
