Welcome to Newtown Robert Owen Scout Troop
Newtown Scout hall was built in 1978. Since then, the building has seen many new faces come and go, both children and leaders. We play an active part in Scouting in Montgomeryshire and our local community, and invite new members to join us.
Our Scout Troop meets every Wednesday evening from 6:00pm until 7:30pm during school term dates at Newtown Jubilee Scout Hall which is located near Newtown Police Station at what3words location
Whilst we already have a Scout Troop Team Leader and a number of Scout Troop Team Members who plan and deliver our Scout Troop programme, events and adventurous activities, we are always looking to find additional adult volunteers to grow our Scout Troop so that we can plan and deliver more fun and adventurous scouting activities.
Even if you cannot commit to attending our weekly Wednesday evening Scout Troop meetings, we would still love to hear from you if you feel that you can help with fundraising activities, be part of our support team for our events and adventurous activities, help deliver certain skills and activities, or just help us to maintain and improve our Jubilee Scout Hall.
No previous experience of having been a youth member of the scouting movement or being an adult scouting volunteer previously is required as online 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 adult volunteers need to successfully pass a Disclosure and Barring Service check (DBS) before becoming an adult volunteer working with young people.
For more information about what sorts of activities Scouts do, click on the link below.
If you would like more information about becoming part of our adult 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 volunteering to be one of our new Cubs leaders or simply helping out at our Scout Group, please do not hesitate to contact our Group Lead Volunteer, Chris Lloyd at gsl@newtownscouts.org.uk
Please contact us if this is something that you would like to do to help our Scout Troop develop their #SkillsForLife at Newtown Robert Owen Scout Group.
