Parents and Leaders
All our Leaders are volunteers. We manage the Beaver Colony, plan and deliver activities, support your young people in their personal development, and work to keep Scouting safe and inclusive. We have all completed a Personal Enquiry, with Disclosure Check (PVG) and have access to training.
We need you to work in partnership with us to ensure your young person has a safe and fun Scouting experience. An important part of this is having clear and open channels of communication between parents/carers and Leaders.
