Role Description

Find out more about what an Assistant Squirrel Scout Leader does.

What does the Squirrel team do?

They open the world to little hands and bright eyes. Through stories, play, colours, and simple adventures, the team builds a safe first step into Scouting, a place where curiosity is rewarded, kindness is celebrated, and confidence grows quietly but surely.

What would I do?

You’d help guide our youngest members through games, crafts, songs, and tiny challenges that feel huge to them. You’d join in their wonder, steady their nerves, and make each session feel like a joyful doorway to discovery. Your presence helps shape their first memories of belonging.

Want to have a chat?

We welcome enquiries from people outside of Scouting, as well as exsiting members who may want to explore a role with a higher level of responsibility, developing new skills, abilities and set themselves new personal challenges – all of which can be used in and outside Scouting.

All roles are open to people aged 18 and above unless otherwise indicated.
