Trustees are a team of volunteers who see the big picture, make decisions, and work together to help Scouts run smoothly.

Trustees play a key part in Scouts, and keep an eye on our vision. They make sure young people have the best experience at Scouts, and check things are being done safely and legally.

Trustees support leaders to deliver a fantastic programme, while having a laugh, making new friends, and learning new skills themselves.

What skills do I need?

If you’ve got any of the below qualities, we think you’ll make a brilliant trustee…

You’re interested in helping young people get skills for life

You don’t mind working with and talking to other people

You’re a bit creative, or like to find solutions to problems

You like being organised

You like hearing what other people have to say

You’d like to be more active in your local community

If you’ve helped lead a project before, this’ll really help you, but we’re not expecting you to have any prior experience.

You don’t need to have been in Scouts before, either – it’s fine if you’re completely new.
