Why should I volunteer?
Why should I volunteer?
Volunteering with a Scout group as a leader or casual helper is just as rewarding for an adult as it is for Scouts. You'll face all the same challenges as our young people but with more responsbility. It's not unheard of to have a leader abseling off a large climbing tower with all their Scouts below shouting encouragement. Scouts often find themselves overcoming personal challenges and that sense of achievement is passed onto the Leaders working with them.
Can I help if I have no experience?
Can I help if I have no experience?
You don't need to have any experience of working with young people to be a Scout leader as full training is given. Some of the training modules can be completed online and others involve attending training sessions. You may find however you have plenty of skills to offer Scouting. You'll also gain a huge amount of personal experience in whatever activities and roles you partake in many of which look great on a CV and make excellent talking points for job interviews. Alternatively you can pursue one of your favourite hobbies or organise a sporting even you've always wanted to try.
