The Duchess will be volunteering with beaver scout colonies and cub scout packs close to where she is living. The Duchess has chosen to volunteer with us because she has been so impressed by the impact that we have on young people and on our communities. Like many people The Duchess is incredibly busy. What has made it easy for her to volunteer is that we offer a model of volunteering that she can fit around her other duties and obligations. As an organisation we realised some years ago that we had to be accessible to all potential volunteers; not just the ones who could commit to regular weekly meetings. All the work we have done to encourage ‘flexible volunteering’ has been to support this. The involvement of The Duchess is the most wonderful endorsement of the volunteering opportunities that we are able to offer – you must make sure that you seize it. Over the coming days the news of The Duchess’s involvement in Scouting will be a talking point with other volunteers, with parents, perhaps your friends or family. When you are speaking about the news, make sure you don’t just talk about the news itself, but the different opportunities there are for everyone to volunteer. We all know that we need more volunteers. By thinking differently and offering flexible opportunities we can make it easier for people to offer their time. Think about how you can make it work in your area – you might not be able to recruit a Duchess, but you can get more people involved by being flexible. *Yours sincerely Wayne Bulpitt UK Chief Commissioner* © Copyright The Scout Association 2011.
