#Skillsforlife
As you know, Explorer Units are run by volunteer leaders. Unfortunately, we currently have a shortage of volunteer leaders in some of the units and if we are unable to resolve this in the near future, we regret we may have to make the decision to close these units temporarily. If this was to occur, we don’t at present have enough space in other units to accommodate these members. This would mean we would be unable to continue Scouting for some of our current members.
Who are Explorer Scouts?
Explorer Scouts are vibrant individuals aged 14 to 18, bubbling with energy and a thirst for exploration. Their program revolves around the pillars of fun, life skills, and thrilling adventures. As an Explorer Scout leader, you’ll be an essential part of shaping these young minds, helping them discover their potential, and nurturing their personal growth.
Unleash Your Potential: Leader’s Role
Imagine gaining new skills, forming lasting connections, and having a blast, all while working alongside enthusiastic young minds and fellow adult leaders. Our leadership team finds fulfilment in creating memorable experiences for our Explorer Scouts. You’ll be a guide, a mentor, and a friend, inspiring young individuals to challenge themselves, discover the world, and develop into responsible and confident adults.
Flexibility that Fits Your Life
We understand that your commitments are diverse, and that’s why we offer flexible volunteering options. Whether you’re a working professional, or anyone with a passion for making a difference, we have a level of involvement that suits your schedule. You decide how you’d like to contribute, ensuring that your journey with us is both enriching and accommodating.
Safety First: Training and Screening
The safety and wellbeing of our young members are paramount. To ensure this, we take safeguarding seriously.
