Why do we need your help?
Colonies, Packs and Troops in Ingleborough District frequently have long waiting lists but with additional adult
help more youngsters could join in the fun!
Have you any skills you could share with young people, maybe just once or twice a month? Could
you help the adults involved in Scouting with paperwork, fund raising,
activities or looking after equipment?
Who can help?
We recruit from
all ages, walks of life and family circumstances. Please consider if
you have any time to give to young people in your community.
What will I get out of it?
You'll find it very rewarding and enjoyable;
you'll learn skills and make lots of new friends. Modular training customized
to your needs is available and your Group usually pays for any uniform,
if this is required. Your hours of service can be flexible to meet
your availability and level of commitment so why not give it a go?
