What you will be doing

Do you enjoy interacting with children and organising games and craft activities? Do you think you can inspire young people aged between 6 and 8-years-old to focus their energy and reach their full potential? Do you want to learn new skills and qualifications?

We're looking for a Beaver Section Leader for the 101st Kempston Scout group, which meets on a Tuesday, 5.45pm to 7pm, in Kempston.
Approximate time required: 1 hour and 15 mins a week, plus planning time.

Working as part of a team of adult volunteers to assist in the planning and delivery of an exciting programme of outdoor activities, crafts, community projects, games, challenges and even for many, their first night away from home at a beaver sleepover.

This is a fun and rewarding role and is ideal for people that enjoy working with young people. Overtime you will see members grow in confidence and ability as they learn from the programme you help run.

No previous experience of scouting is necessary. What’s more important is your own skills and experience as well as empathy with our mission and values. We provide a warm welcome, a sociable network, a relevant level of easy to access training and lots of online resources to help with the planning of activities as well as lots of ongoing face to face support.

Being part of scouting is great fun and it goes without saying that helping young people can be one of the most rewarding things you can do, plus it also looks great on your CV!
