Why Volunteer?
There are many reasons why adults might volunteer to get involved with Scouting. Here are just a few reasons:
"Having been through Scouts all the way through from Beavers to Explorers and completed the Young Leader scheme it only seemed like the natural progression to become a Leader and give my time back after all the time the Leaders who have led me gave to my time in Scouting" "To help ensure our son's and daughter's get to experience Scouting" "To develop my own skills and do something practical" "To live a healthier and more active lifestyle" "To enjoy and rediscover adventure for myself"
What do Scouts do?
Sections usually meet on one evening a week, although they do also attend camps and other days out throughout the year.
Whilst the activities vary by age group, each Section gives Young People the opportunity to learn by doing.
Volunteers receive the learning and support they need to help deliver a safe, enjoyable programme.

How could volunteering fit around your life?
You might be interested in regular section meetings, helping with an occasional activity or supporting the Group behind the scenes. Tell us about your interests and availability, and we’ll discuss what is currently needed.
You don’t need to have been a Scout. Our team can explain the learning, support and any checks required for the role.
