Helping our Group
Many parents help with the Beavers, Cubs, Scouts or Explorers and we could not provide the programme without this help. However, more adult help is always welcome. If you would like to help - either occasionally or more regularly - you will need to complete this Occasional Helper form.If you have previously completed an Occasional Helper form, you will be asked to renew your CRB check - usually every five years. For this, there is a Repeat CRB form.
Along with your application form we will need to see various forms of identification. See this Identity Checking Guide document for details.
