Reports to: Squirrels Team Leader
Squirrels is where the adventure begins. As a team member you’ll help run weekly sessions full of play, stories, mess and first-time wins for our youngest members.
What you’ll do
- Help plan and run a fun, safe and balanced programme of games, crafts, songs and outdoor play — working toward the Chief Scout’s Acorn Award.
- Welcome children and their parents and carers, and help everyone feel they belong.
- Encourage every child to give it a go — and celebrate loudly when they do.
- Help keep records up to date and hand out those first badges.
- Keep sessions safe, following our safeguarding code and simple risk assessments.
- Muck in as part of the team — setting up, tidying up and cheering on.
No experience needed. Energy, patience and a love of glitter all help.
Every adult role includes a friendly welcome conversation, a DBS check and free training — and a team that’s got your back.
