Youth Work Teenage Helpers

Would you like to go on fun adventures, explore and laugh with friends?

Are you aged 14+?

At Girlguiding we do everything from camping to campaigning! We’re all about girls and young women laughing, learning and having adventures. Why not join the fun?
Meetings usually run on weekday evenings after school for about an hour, and you can choose how much or how little you can help out!


Youth volunteering with Girlguiding Scotland looks great on a CV, and can improve skills like teamwork, leadership, communication, creativity and IT. It’s great experience if you want a career in youthwork or education, and counts towards your Duke of Edinburgh award. Colleges and universities love seeing volunteering on an application too! There are loads of meetings happening all over the Scottish Borders, so you can join one close to you.
Our volunteers are what makes Girlguiding amazing, and we welcome people of all backgrounds and walks of life. Come have a chat with us, you won’t regret it!
