UK Lead Volunteer for Perception

Nisha Patel

Nisha Patel joined Scouts seven years ago when her eldest child joined Beavers.

Since then, she has fully immersed herself into Scouting and is currently a Cubs Section Team Leader, Deputy District Commissioner for Growth and Development in Ealing and Hanwell, and co-manages the Media and Communications for Greater London Middlesex West.

In her professional life, Nisha is a producer and reporter at the BBC World service.

She is also a volunteer counsellor at Childline and event director at Parkrun Southall.

In her spare time, Nisha enjoys reading fiction, cooking, cycling and hiking (with her sometimes reluctant) three children and husband.
