Would you
like to join the
adventure? We are always
looking for more members and especially new adult helpers.
Joining as a Cub
Cubs are aged 8 to 10½ years old and can be
boys or girls. We operate a waiting list as Beaver Scouts
transferring to the pack always take priority. If you would like
to add your name to the list please click on "Contact us" and
complete our enquiry form. The form is sent to Steve Stocker,
our Group Scout Leader, who manages the waiting list.
Opportunities for adults
Please note that all adults that are in
contact with the children in our care have to complete a CRB
check. The leaders can tell you more about what this involves or
you can contact our Group Scout Leader via the "Contact us"
link.
- Occasional helper: We operate a
parents rota each term so that parents can take it in
turns to come along each week and help us run the pack
meeting. You must be a Cub Scout parent to help on the rota
but you do not need to have completed a Scouting CRB check.
However, if you think that you might like to help more
regularly, or you would like to help with our camps or
expeditions then you will need to complete a CRB check.
- Pack Assistant: We are looking for
keen adults to assist the Cub Scout leaders. We're looking for
people who could come along most weeks as it is only by coming
regularly that they would get to know the way we work and what
is expected from them. You don't have to be a Cub Scout parent
to be a helper. You would not be expected to wear uniform or
to undertake training - although both can be available to you.
- Uniformed Leader: We are looking for
keen adults to become Cub Scout leaders. You'd be an energetic
person who gets on well with 8 to 11 year olds (and can cope
with the noise that they make). We're looking for people who
could come along every week and work as part of the leadership
team. Your first uniform would be provided by the group once
you have been interviewed by the District Appointments
Committee. As a warranted leader you make a commitment to
undertake training. You don't have to be a Cub Scout parent to
become a leader.
You can find out more information about joining the Scout
Association and see the wide range of roles and
opportunities available by visiting the
Scout HQ website.
