Chief Scout, @BearGrylls, writes about how opportunities to develop resilience, teamwork and leadership skills should be available to all young people. New research from @Demos shows how skills learned in Scouts are crucial for employability. mirror.co.uk/3am/celebrity-…

If you would like to continue (or start) your volunteering experience, we would love to hear from you!

Huge well done to @20thOldham #Scouts who attended one of our sessions at Strinesdale Reservoir this Sunday. They all managed to gain their digital media badge which was a very proud moment for us and we are grateful to be a part of it! 🥲 @WeActTogether @OldhamScouts

Great time at Strinesdale yesterday with @OutdoorCollab Adam and Andrew were great and we are looking forward to seeing the pictures the Scouts took and edited

We are very grateful to all of the Scouting volunteers who make the fun and adventure possible!

@Limetreepr @Oldham_Hour There are so many different opportunities to volunteer - sharing skills, working with our young people, or helping behind the scenes, and plenty of opportunities to have fun too! #oldhamhour #scouts #oldhamscouts #VolunteersWeek2021

@20thOldham @Oldham_Hour Great organisation... are there any particular skills you are looking for? #OldhamHour

Good evening all - we are just coming to the end of Volunteers Week. Do you do any volunteering at all? #Oldhamhour #volunteersweek2021

It’s okay if you’re feeling lost right now. A lot of others will be feeling the same way. This is a time when you need to be extra gentle with yourself. Stay hopeful.
