☕ Brew it Forward – Nominate a Volunteer for a Well-Earned Cuppa!

As we gear up for #VolunteersWeek, we're celebrating the amazing adults who make Scouting possible — the ones who go above and certainly beyond to support young people, their teams, and the community.

To say a big thank you, we’re running a special giveaway:
We’ve got
10 x £10 coffee vouchers to give away to some of our most inspiring Scout volunteers — and we need your help to find them!


How it works:

We’re asking you to nominate a fellow adult Scout volunteer (aged 18+) who deserves a treat.
Maybe they’re always the first to lend a hand, bring the best energy to every camp, or are the glue holding the team together. Whatever it is that makes them amazing — tell us about it!

🎉 Nominations are now open!
🗓
Deadline to nominate: Sunday 1 June
🎁
Winners will be drawn on Monday 2 June
📬
Vouchers will be sent out later that week

👉 https://forms.office.com/r/zDbcVQQL0T to submit your nomination.


Celebrate With Us

Keep an eye on our social media and website during Volunteers’ Week — we’ll be sharing some of your brilliant nominations and shouting out the fantastic volunteers who keep the Scouting spirit alive.

So go on — let’s Brew it Forward and give someone the warm, fuzzy, coffee-fuelled appreciation they truly deserve! ☕💚
