Summary

New trustees are sought to join the friendly trustee board and help to ensure that the Scout Group is running well. We meet in the evenings, a few times a year

Detailed description

The Trustee Board is a team of volunteers who work together to make sure Scouts is run safely and legally. Together, Trustees make sure the charity is well managed, risks are assessed and mitigated, buildings and equipment are in good working order, and everyone follows legal requirements and Policy, Organisation and Rules (POR). Their support helps other volunteers run a fantastic programme that gives young people skills for life (and experiences they’ll remember forever). 


Some trustees have particular roles, such as the chair or treasurer. All have shared responsibility for ensuring that the Scout group is well run.


Being a trustee is a great way to gain professional experience in areas such as planning, finance and risk management, as well as being part of a board.


We need people who can see things from different viewpoints, who are passionate about supporting their community, and want to give young people skills for life. We also encourage every volunteer to bring their own skills, knowledge and experience to the role.

About 63rd Peterborough (St Kyneburgha) Scout Group

The Scout Association provides adventurous activities and personal development opportunities for 400,000 young people aged 6-25.

Personal development means promoting the physical, intellectual, social and spiritual well-being of the individual, helping them achieve their full potential.

In Scouting, we believe that young people develop most when they are 'learning by doing,' when they are given responsibility, work in teams, take acceptable risks and think for themselves.

63rd Peterborough (St Kyneburgha) Scout Group meets in Castor and takes children (both boys and girls) from Castor, Ailsworth and the surrounding villages.

Lead by a dedicated group of volunteers, we offer an exciting and adventurous program for Beavers, Cubs and Scouts (including residential experiences) that helps our children explore who they are, challenge themselves and learn about their place in their community and the wider world.
