Volunteer for Girlguiding in Banff & Buchan

Girlguiding Scotland is the leading charity for girls and young women in Scotland, with over 35,000 young members supported by 9,000 amazing volunteers. Girlguiding helps members discover their full potential by having fun and enjoying new adventures.
Are you enthusiastic about giving girls opportunities for fun, friendship, challenge and adventure?
If the answer is yes, then you’d make a great Girlguiding volunteer in Banff & Buchan!
Whether you want to help with a specific event, on a casual or remote basis, or attend regularly; you can be involved in a way that works for you, suiting your skills, interests and availability.
-What you'll be doing:
There are lots of roles to choose from, we are always looking for youth group leaders, helpers, admin and support roles! Get in touch and we can find something that works for you.
-You might:
Help directly with girls in your community, giving them a space to discover their potential – whether that’s at your local groups regular meetings, at one-off events, on trips or adventures!
Be the behind-the-scenes superhero that makes the magic of guiding happen in one of our supporting roles. Admin could include anything from keeping records up to date remotely to communicating with girls’ parents and carers about the exciting adventures coming up.
Share a specific skill or passion – to teach girls new things or help guiding run locally. Perhaps you play football and could run a one-off session for girls? Maybe you could lend your DIY skills to help with the upkeep of your local guiding building? Or if you’re a finance or communications whizz, could you help manage accounts or run a local group’s social media?
There are no specific skills required - we welcome volunteers from all backgrounds and experiences. Just bring yourself and your enthusiasm. All volunteers make a real difference and are greatly appreciated.

All of our roles have to complete our safeguarding training. For roles directly with girls this is safer guiding, for behind-the-scenes roles this is safer guiding basics.
Anyone interested in becoming a leader also needs to work towards their leadership qualification - a great training programme where you'll receive mentor support and learn new skills! Not sure if it's for you - enquire anyway and our volunteers will be able to find the bets fit for you.
