Organisation Description: SCOUT GROUP AND YOUTH ACTIVITES
Description of role: What we do each week is run an 90 minute programme of games and activities, helping children and young people learn skills and "great stuff" that makes them happy and we hope, build confidence and team skills that will all be useful in life
We would love to have more volunteers as having more hands and eyes in the rooms makes a massive difference to how successful and evening can be.
Its fun for us as volunteers too.
If you have a skill or skills - music - technology - football or sports, cooking, modelling, anything really we can happily incorporate that in to future sessions towards badges too.
Don;t think you don't know enough - willing to be present is enough as a first step - then get comfortable and then we can integrate you into planning or activities at a speed of your choice.
Hope you will consider Scouting a great opportunity during your spare time at Uni - it can be so much more than the 90 mins of volunteer time each. it could be friendship groups , activities and skills you may want to learn for yourself too.
