Unfortunately, a number of our adult volunteers left our scout group during the Covid Pandemic which meant that we had to close our Beavers Colony.
We are looking for a new team of adult volunteers to join our scout group so that we can restart our Beavers Colony at Newtown Robert Owen Scout Group. Ideally, we need a team of at least three adults to form our Beavers Colony team, with one of those adult volunteers being willing to take on the position of Beaver Leader and two or more other volunteers takiung on the role of Assistant Section Leader.
No previous experience of having been a youth member of the scouting movement or being an adult scouting volunteer previously is required as training, guidance and mentoring will be provided, and there is a host of information about programme planning available on the Scouts UK website. The only qualification you need is a desire to make a positive difference to the lives of young people in our community and a sense of humour.
Safety and Safeguarding of all of our youth members and adult volunteers is very important to us as a youth charity, so all of our adut volunteers need to succesfully pass a Disclosure and Barring Service check (DBS) before becoming an adult volunteer working with young people.

If you are wondering how to volunteer to be part of our scouting volunteers team, you will find some useful information on the Scouts website about becoming an adult volunteer in Scouts
For an informal discussion about volunteeing to be one of our new Beaver leaders or simply helping out at our Scout Group, please do not hesitate to contact our Group Scout Leader, Chris Lloyd at gsl@newtownscouts.org.uk
