Unit Leader or Helper
About this opportunity
Girl Guiding offers values based programs to girls aged 5 to 18. The focus is on building physical, practical and people skills as part of self development. Local units have waiting lists of girls eager to join but we do not have enough women to run our units which meet weekly during school terms in the early evening. There are several levels of commitment from fully trained Leaders and Assistants through regular Unit Helpers to helpers who share their skills on an occasional basis.
Additional requirements
National Police Certificate *. Working with Children Check *.
Leaders are women aged 18+ who enjoy working with children and supporting their personal development. Guiding experience is desirable but by no means essential and activities include camping, crafts, games, service projects and leadership skills development.
Working with Children and Police Checks payable by agency.
Unit meetings are approximately 2 hours per week but there is also time needed for preparation and administration. All Units must have at least two adults so teamwork helps to spread the load. Units may also conduct weekend activities such as camps where extra help is required.
