Volunteer with Lincoln Scouts
Help young people shine, make new friends, and discover what you’re capable of - all while giving back to your local community.
Bring people together. Share skills. Make memories that last a lifetime.
Every week, volunteers across Lincoln help young people gain skills for life. Whether it’s lighting their first campfire, leading their first hike, or helping them find their confidence, our volunteers make it happen.
You don’t need any special experience or Scouting background to get involved - just enthusiasm and a willingness to lend a hand. From running activities to making the tea, driving the minibus or helping with admin, every role counts. However much time you can give, we’ll match you with something that fits.
What Volunteers Do
There really is a role for everyone. Some volunteers work directly with young people, leading games, teaching skills, or supporting camps and adventures. Others help behind the scenes - organising events, managing finances, handling admin, keeping equipment in order, or supporting communications.
You can give as much or as little time as you like, and every role makes a difference. Whether you love being in the thick of it or prefer to help quietly in the background, you’ll be part of something big that changes lives in our community.
Why Volunteer?
Volunteering can be a brilliant way to boost your wellbeing, meet new people and make a difference in your community. Whether you can give an hour a month or a couple of evenings a week, there’s a role to suit every schedule and skillset.
- Build skills and confidence: Gain practical experience in teamwork, leadership and communication.
- Give back locally: Help shape the next generation right here in Lincoln.
- Meet new people: Join a welcoming team of volunteers who support one another.
- Have fun: Scouting is full of adventure, laughter and memories you’ll treasure.
No Experience? No Problem.
We provide full training, resources and support. You’ll never be thrown in the deep end.
Whether you can give an hour a month or an evening a week, your contribution helps us create safe, adventurous experiences for young people across the city.
