Team Opportunities and Volunteering

At any Scout group there are a core set of roles that need to be filled by  volunteers to allow the group to run. Such roles include enough leaders for each section, treasurers and secretary.

Our current available roles:

Can't do every week? If you still want to volunteer but you don't think you can commit to every week, you can do every other week, a few times a term, or whatever suits you. We're flexible!

Get Involved

There are so many ways to get involved in Scouting, and the best part is that you can volunteer as much, or as little, as you like!

There are official roles within 1st Crownhill Scout Group from admin roles behind the scenes to active leader roles running the nights and camps.

But you can also get involved by bringing your own knowledge and experience along to one of our evenings or events and running an activity. Everyone who runs Scouting is a volunteer, and we always appreciate people getting involved and helping us to provide the best we can for the children and young adults at 1st Crownhill.

Why should I volunteer?

We want all the children at 1st Crownhill to have fun, make friends, learn new skills and build memories that will last a lifetime, and that is all down to the volunteers.

As a volunteer, you'll become an integral part of our Scout community and helping us to provide all sorts of fun and games for the children.

If you decide to become a leader or assistant leader, you'll be able to come camping and hiking with your group, learn traditional and new Scout skills and take part in all sorts of fun days and activities.

Behind the scenes includes event organisation and fundraising, something which is extremely important to allow our group to continue - Scouting is a charity organisation, and runs entirely on donations and subs, and running successful fundraising events is as important as running the nights themselves.

You'll reach a network of like-minded people with a sense of adventure and find new opportunities to learn, have fun and to give back to the community through the children at 1st Crownhill.
