How To Become A Volunteer

How you can become a volunteer

We’ve been supporting our adult leaders for over 120 years, so we know how to provide you with everything you need to volunteer successfully. You’ll find we like to keep things simple, so we make the process of applying to volunteer as easy as possible.

As you’d expect, the health, welfare, safety and security of our youngsters comes first. We ensure all our adults leaders have DBS (formerly CRB) checks and first-aid training. We’ve designed a range of comprehensive training and leadership programmes to best suit your needs and we ensure all our volunteers have the knowledge, skills and support they need to really make a positive impact.

We’ll support you right from the start: from shadowing other volunteers at groups near you to ‘on the job training’. You can be reassured that we’ll provide you with everything you need to help at an existing group or even create your own new group for your local community. Just a few hours of your time one evening a week will make a huge difference and have a massive impact.
