Your year to volunteer could look exactly like this. Pure, unscripted fun with young people who are completely in the moment. The best volunteers have a gift for making even the most chaotic activity feel like the best day ever. And the thing is, it tends to feel that way for them too.

That connection, that energy, that joy of being present with young people who are having the time of their lives. That is what keeps people coming back to Scouting. Thank you for bringing that energy every single time.

There is something about a volunteer who is completely in the zone. Focused, skilled, and giving it everything they have got. Volunteering with Scouts sharpens you. It builds patience and leadership, stretches your skills in ways you did not expect, and connects you to a community of people who are all showing up for the same reason.

This is your year to volunteer, and this is what dedication looks like when it becomes something you are genuinely proud of. Thank you for bringing your best to Scouting.

As part of National Volunteer Week 2026, we would like to sincerely thank all of the volunteers who contribute to our Scout Group and wider community.

From our dedicated uniformed leaders and committee members working behind the scenes, to parent helpers and families supporting fundraising events, working bees, camps, and activities — every contribution plays an important role.

Your generosity, time, and commitment help create a strong, welcoming, and supportive community for our young people. Every effort, no matter how big or small, makes a meaningful difference.

Thank you for all that you do.
