Get involved
There are loads of ways to get involved. If you have some spare time then we can find you something helpful to do. It may be an individual task or as part of a team, whichever you prefer.
Fundraising volunteers
Fundraising is critical to us being able to provide high quality Scouting, maintain our Scout hut, and purchasing new equipment.
We are always on the lookout for willing hands to help at our fundraising events. Whether you’ve got an hour or an afternoon, it all really helps.
To volunteer or just to find out a bit more email volunteer@twyfordscouts.org.uk

Section Team Leaders, Team Members and Helpers
Our Section Leaders and their Team Members are the beating heart of our Group. Without them our youngsters wouldn’t be able to enjoy and benefit from the varied Scouting programme available.
Scouting offers skills for life for the youngsters involved, but it also benefits our adult leaders and helpers, equipping them with skills and tools to inspire others, and giving them the chance to be part of a very special community.
We are always looking for new leaders and part-time helpers, so please get in touch if you could spare a bit of time and would like to make a difference.
Ready to Make a Difference?
All volunteers are required to undergo a Disclosure check known as a DBS as they are likely to be working alongside children. Please fill in the Get in Touch form below and be prepared to fill in a DBS form as per the link on Ready to Make a Difference and you will be assured of a warm welcome.
Board of Trustees
Our leaders look after our Scouting programme, while our Executive Committee look after the general running of the group.
The support the Committee provide means the Scout leaders can focus their time on developing our young Scouts, and have the resources and facilities they need to offer high quality Scouting activities. As we are a registered charity, the Committee also act as our trustees.
We are always looking for new members and extra support on the Committee, so if you could spare a bit of time and would like to help to make our Scouting the best it possibly can be, then you should get involved.
