Health and Safety Lead

Where: Home Open Volunteer Spots: 1

Reports to: Group Lead Volunteer

Adventure is the point — doing it safely is the deal. The Health and Safety Lead helps everyone plan well, spot hazards early and learn when things don’t go to plan.

What you’ll do

  • Champion the Scouts Safety Policy and safety checklists across everything we do.
  • Help leaders write and review risk assessments for sessions, events and water activities.
  • Record incidents and near misses, make sure they’re reported properly, and share the lessons.
  • Keep fire drills, first aid cover and kit checks on track, with the Lilac Grove and Barton Island Leads.
  • Keep an eye on standards for our water activities alongside the GLV and Water Team Lead.
  • Share short, useful safety updates — no jargon, no lectures.

Every adult role includes a friendly welcome conversation, a DBS check and free training — and a team that’s got your back.
