Volunteering. It’s #GoodForYou.
Volunteering’s not just about giving back – it goes both ways. It improves your wellbeing, gives you skills for the future, and helps you make new friends (and memories). All our activities are run by volunteers, who might join us because they want to:
Try something new
Make friends
Spend time with their children – or gain experience with young people
Do something good for their community and themselves
Keep their bodies and brains active and happy
All end up making a huge difference to young people's lives – gifting them with skills for life, and learning a whole lot about themselves along the way.
But don't just take our word for it. Read on to find an opportunity that's #GoodForYou and to hear from existing volunteers across the country.
Current Opportunities:
We are currently recruiting people who enjoy interacting with young people, and those who are more comfortable behind the scenes. We'd love to hear from you if you are great at organising craft activities, have plenty of energy, enjoy playing games and are patient and caring to help co-ordinate a team of willing parent volunteers. Equally we're keen to find someone with good administration and communication skills to assist our behind-the-scenes team. Is this something you could do? Or perhaps you have a friend or family member that you know would be just ideal. Please do get in touch if you'd like to take on this really rewarding role. Scouting happens when a lot of us give a little. You're not signing up for a lifelong commitment - just to help out, when and where you can.
Build your skills.
Boost your happiness.
Connect with your local community.
Discover what you can do
Whether wanting to work with young people directly or behind the scenes, there's something for everyone.
