As a Leader

Achieve!

Are you looking for just that bit more out of life? Open minded and keen to learn new skills? Love outdoor adventure and want some real responsibility?

Inspire!

If you enjoy working with young people then this is for you. Being a Leader means you can make a genuine difference to the lives of young people and inspire future generations.

Do more!

As a Leader you’ll be working with Scouts from all backgrounds aged six and upwards, enriching their lives as well as your own. Take part in activities like camping, abseiling, community and environmental projects, climbing and lots more.

As an Adult Helper

Our Scouting simply would not exist without the skills and enthusiasm of our Adult Helpers. Whether you can spare two hours a week or a day a month, we need instructors, minibus drivers, people with practical skills - people who share our aim of making life better for young people.

As an Administrator
If you are organised, efficient and are not necessarily interested in working directly with young people, there are a number of administrative opportunities open to adults. Records need to be maintained, the annual census completed, correspondence replied to and communication between Sections and Groups maintained. Whatever you choose to do, you will be contributing to the effective running of our Scout Group.

As a Committee Member
Parents place a huge amount of trust in us; because we have a duty to protect the young people in our care we make sure that Scouting is safe as well as enjoyable. We also have a duty to ensure that our financial resources and property are administered properly and that the Group is managed in a business-like manner. It is therefore essential that we have responsible individuals who can help us maintain our high standards.

Volunteering in Scouting is fun and rewarding. You will have the chance to learn new skills, rediscover adventure, make new friends, spend more time with your child if they are a Scout and give something back to your community.

You don’t need to know everything about Scouting - we’ll provide full training, induction and ongoing support. What matters is that you are committed, have a sense of humour and a huge amount of common sense.
