Can you Help?

How Can you Help?

As everything is run by volunteers, we need all families to contribute as best as they can to the running of our Scout Group. There are countless ways in which people can help.

Some ideas:

  • To act as a leader of any of the Sections – leaders have fun too!
  • Assist as Adult Support in a Section
  • Participate on the Group Committee
  • Offer to take on an office-bearer position
  • Provide expertise or skills that can be utilised by the Group
  • Lend equipment or facilities (such as a farm for camping) that can be utilised by the Group
  • Organise publicity for Group events
  • Help produce the Group newsletter – contribute photos, chase up stories, donate printing or paper
  • Come down and talk to a Section about your profession or hobby
  • Provide an excursion to your place of employment e.g. factory or laboratory
  • Help with the headquarters maintenance – especially if you have a trade skill
  • Help with transport e.g. offer to tow a trailer, loan us a van or, if you have the appropriate licence, to drive a bus to camps and other activities
  • Donate prizes for fundraising events
  • Offer to help organise fundraising events

Please contact the Group Scout Leader or the Chairperson of the Parents' Support Group if you can help out with any of these items.
