Volunteering

Share your skills, gain new ones

We are currently looking to recruit for the following roles:

Chairperson 

This could be your best decision yet. 

Scouting relies on strong leadership. So if you can motivate others, keep a cool head and balance a variety of views then you would be an ideal chairperson for 35th Nottingham (Kingswood) Scouts. With experience of steering meetings to produce excellent decisions, you’ll be equally willing to speak your mind as encouraging others to express their views. You will use your strong communication skills help to help team of committed adult volunteers who make up the Trustee Baord arrive at a good decision that will benefit young people. Able to work as part of a team, you will also contribute the direction and development of the Group.

Key tasks:

• Lead the Trustee Board. 
• Plan when Trustee Board meetings should take place, and decide what to talk about at each meeting. 
• Lead Trustee Board meetings and the Annual General Meeting (AGM). 
• Liaise with Lead Volunteers. 
• Lead recruitment for new Trustees. 
• Support other Trustees by organising inductions, checking in to see how they’re getting on, and carrying out annual reviews. 

No previous experience of Scouting is necessary. What’s more important is your own skills and experience as well as empathy with our mission and values. We will provide all appropriate training and ongoing support. 

35th Nottingham (Kingswood) Scouts is part of the Scouts, offering fun, friendship and skills for life to over 460,000 young people across the UK.

Group Trustee Board Member(s)

Every Scout Group requires trustees, which form the Group Trustee Board. 

This committee oversees the administration of the Group. As well as a Chair, Secretary and Treasurer, each Trustee Board welcomes people with specific skills, and representatives of Beaver, Cub and Scout parents. Most Trustee Boards meet three or four times a year, but effective members will volunteer for tasks in between the meetings, thus ensuring the smooth running of the Scout Group and maximising its potential for a hugely positive impact on its young members. 35th Nottingham (Kingswood)
