Looking for something new?

If you’ve ever thought about giving back, meeting new people, or finding a new challenge, volunteering with Doncaster Scouts could be exactly what you need. Every week, across Doncaster, hundreds of young people aged 4 to 18 take part in adventures that build confidence, skills, and friendships that last a lifetime. Behind every activity, badge, and smile, there’s a team of adult volunteers who make it all happen.

You don’t need to be Bear Grylls

A common myth about volunteering with Scouts is that you need to be an outdoor expert or know how to tie a hundred different knots. That couldn’t be further from the truth. Scouting is about people. It’s about giving young people safe spaces to try new things, supporting them as they grow, and helping them believe they can achieve more than they thought possible.

Whether you’re a brilliant organiser, a creative thinker, a great communicator, or someone who simply enjoys helping others, there’s a place for you in Doncaster Scouts.

Small time, big difference

Many of our volunteers fit their roles around busy lives, work, and family. You might give an hour a week helping at meetings, support camps a few weekends a year, or take on a background role in administration, social media, or fundraising. Every bit of help counts.

What you’ll get out of it

Volunteering with Scouts isn’t just about what you give; it’s also about what you gain. You’ll meet friendly, like-minded people, develop new skills, and feel proud knowing you’re helping to build stronger, more confident young people in your community.

If you’ve been looking for something rewarding and meaningful, this could be the adventure you didn’t know you were missing.
