Opportunity hosted by: 100th Salford Scout Group
Description:

At the beating heart of our programme, we need Team Members. If you’re passionate, practical, and proud to be inclusive, then being a Squirrels, Beavers, Cubs or Scouts Team Member is perfect for you.

Do you hear that? Those distant howls of laughter and yells of excitement? No, it’s not the sound of animals. It’s coming from your local Scouts meeting place. Want to join in the fun? Become a Team Member and help run our curious sections of 4-14 year olds!

We promise you’ll feel energised, excited, and enthusiastic (OK, and maybe slightly worn out), but one thing’s for sure, you’ll definitely be back for more.

You’ll never be bored when you’re helping at one of our sections. You might be giving skills for life to future technicians, musicians, or even politicians. No matter who they are, our Young People need people like you to guide them. Whether you’re baking up a storm, or deep diving into the world of synchronised swimming, everyone can explore their hobbies at Scouts (and even discover some new ones).

So, get out into your community, get to know like-minded people, and work together with your fellow volunteers to give our Young People the courage they need to try something new.
