Could you lead Scouting in Long Eaton?

Are you an experienced manager, able to develop people, with vision and a drive to succeed?

If you are looking for a change from the day job then joining the UK’s largest and fastest growing mixed youth movement could be for you. The Scout movement provides “everyday adventure” for half a million people across the UK, including over 520 young people aged 6-25 in the Long Eaton area alone.

Specifically, officials are looking for a new manager for Long Eaton & District Scouts – known as a District Commissioner – to oversee the team of volunteers providing Scouting locally.

This is a voluntary position and whilst you won’t get paid, the rewards of getting involved in terms of fun, friendship and adventure make it worthwhile – plus of course the valuable skills you could develop whilst undertaking the role. Full training and support will be provided, and expressions of interest are invited from people of all backgrounds.

If you are interested and want to find out more please email admin(at)derbyshirescouts.org or call 01332 841519 for an application pack and nomination form.

Don’t think this is for you, but still have some time to give as a volunteer?

With the continued growth in youth membership, the Scouts have a constant need for additional volunteers to help keep up with this demand. A wide range of flexible volunteering opportunities are available to suit you – so whether your skills lie in instructing adventurous activities, running games, art or craft sessions, administrating , fundraising or making the tea, please consider giving some of your time to Scouting. Even HRH the Duchess of Cambridge has recently signed up to help her local Scout group in Wales!
