Volunteering Journey
Step One- Get In Touch
You’re ready to come and help us achieve our goal of delivering Outdoor Experiences to Young People from all over the UK, so it is time to get in touch!
We’ll ask for some basic details, have a chat and find out a bit more about you and what you would like to do!
Step Two- Organise a Visit
Come and visit us at one of our centres, get an introduction to the team, the site and find out a bit more about what we do and how you can help us out.
This is a great chance to get a feel for Scout Adventures and ask any questions you may have.
Step Three- Join Us!
You've seen the sites, met the people and are ready to take the step into volunteering with us!
This step involves becoming a member of The Scouts, for anyone who is already an Adult Volunteer with the Scouts, this is just a case of making you a member of the Scout Adventures Active Support Unit.
For people new to the Scouts, this means adding you as an Adult Volunteer with us! It's an easy process that just requires some basic details from you. There is some training to do and you'll require a DBS (Criminal Record Check). More information on this can be found here.
Step Four- Start Volunteering!
Signed up, training completed and introductions done? Time to start Volunteering with us.
We'll find you projects/ tasks to suit you, we have some pre-planned volunteering weekends in the calendar, which can be found here. However we are also happy to work with you on planning your volunteering experience, if you have ideas/ plans, let us know and we can work with you on making these happen! Remember, there is opportunities for everyone, no matter your skillset, experience or background we can make sure your Volunteering story with us is a great one!
"I really enjoy volunteering with Scout Adventures. Not only have I made the centre a little bit better, I've made loads of new friends and learnt a few new skills too. I moved to the area recently so it's really helped me to settle in. "
