Make a Difference that Lasts a Lifetime
Whatever your experience. Whatever your availability. There’s a role for you.
Every week, Scouts WA volunteers help young people build confidence, develop life skills, make friends and explore their abilities.
Volunteering is also an opportunity for you. Build new skills, contribute to your community and help create positive experiences for young people across Western Australia.
Explore volunteer opportunities to suit different skills, interests and levels of availability. Our volunteers bring experience from work, study, family life and community involvement.
Ways to volunteer
Not every volunteer role involves working directly with young people. Scouts WA volunteers contribute in many ways, including events, communications, administration, finance, technology, training, governance, property and project work.
Interested in a role? we encourage you to apply, even if you don’t think you meet every requirement. We welcome transferable skills and experience gained through work, study, volunteering, family life or community involvement.
No previous Scouting experience is required. Training, support and mentoring are provided.
