What does this team do?

Our Squirrel team helps our youngest members take their first steps into Scouting. We plan and run a varied programme of games, activities and adventures that gives Squirrels the chance to explore, learn new skills, make friends and build confidence.

The team works together to create a welcoming environment where every Squirrel can get involved. There’s plenty of opportunity to bring your own ideas, interests and skills to the programme too.

What would I do?

That’s really up to you and what you enjoy! You could help prepare and run activities, support individual Squirrels, organise resources or simply get stuck in wherever an extra pair of hands is needed.

You’ll work alongside the rest of the team, learning as you go and getting plenty of support. You don’t need to know everything about Scouting before you start – we’ll help you find your feet.

What would I need?

Most importantly, you’ll need enthusiasm, patience and a willingness to work with young people. Any previous experience is useful, but it isn’t essential. If you’ve got a particular skill or interest you’d like to share, we’d love to hear about it.

How much time would I need?

We understand that life gets busy, so we’ll work with the time you have available. The role is based around our regular Squirrel meetings, with opportunities to get involved in activities and events when you’re able to.
