Adult Volunteers

None of the sections would be able to run without our amazing team of adult volunteers, ranging from Squirrel Leaders to Explorer Leaders to Active Support members.

Our Adult Volunteers have the responsibility of running their section and allowing the young people to make the most out of their Scouting adventure, at the same time having an adventure themselves. Being an Adult Volunteer also offers the chance to build on personal skills, like teamwork, confidence and leadership. A study found that over 90% of the volunteers in the Scouting movement believe that the skills and experiences they have gained through Scouting have been of relevance to their working or personal lives.

To find out more on how to be involved within the Scouting movement as an adult volunteer, to find the nearest Scout group to you or just more information on how you can get involved please visit the contact us page, or visit our Facebook page.

HM King Charles III has been confirmed as our new Patron, a great honour for UK Scouts.

The King continues a long tradition of the monarch giving their Patronage, dating back to 1912. This was when Scouts was granted its Royal Charter and HM George V became our first Patron.
