Volunteer Opportunities

The opportunities within scouts are flexible, many and varied.  Whether you want to support young people directly or if you’re more comfortable planning an adventure from the side lines, providing administrative support or acting as one of our trustees, we have a role for you.

Volunteering is good for boosting your wellbeing, developing CV-friendly skills, making friends, building memories and being part of our scouting family.

Get in touch to see how we can help each other.   It’s not just the young people who benefit from Scouts!
