Eaglesham Beaver Group Assistant

Do you have a couple of hours spare to help young people in your local community? We are looking for volunteers to support the operation of the Eaglesham Beaver Colony (age 6 - 8) in delivering our programme of activities. Beaver Scouts are boys and girls aged between six and eight years old; they belong to the first and youngest Section in the Scouting family. Young people can join Beaver Scouts in the three months leading up to their sixth birthday. Easily recognised by their distinctive turquoise sweatshirts, Beaver Scouts enjoy making friends, playing games, going on visits and helping others.

The level of your involvement is entirely up to you and could vary from helping out for a couple of hours each week at the local Scout Hall to participation in outdoor weekend events & challenges.
