Youth/Volunteer Enquiries – How to Update your unit (Group) details
I recently noticed a drop in Youth/Volunteering enquiries via scouts.org.uk and I was wondering why – until I received an enquiry for my Group, and I remembered… we had added a ‘Youth enquiry’ email to the Group’s contact details.
For those Groups who haven’t added this information to their contact details, or those that need a little help as I did, here’s the information, taken from the SA website:
How to update unit (Groups) details
Sign in to scouts.org.uk
On your welcome page:
1. Click ‘My membership’ on the left-hand side menu (if you’re using a phone, click the menu button on the top right).
2. Click ‘Teams’.
3. Click ‘View all units’.
On the ‘View all units’ page:
4. Type the unit name into the search box. You can also search by Country, Region, County, District and Group. You’ll need to select the ‘Filter by’ option from the dropdown menu.
5. Click ‘Search’.
6. Click the ‘Unit name’ from the list.
7. On the left-hand menu, under the unit’s name (if you’re using a phone, click the menu button on the top right) click ‘Details’.
On the ‘View all units’ page:
8. Click the ‘Select an action’ button.
9. Select ‘Update unit’ from the dropdown menu.
On the ‘Update unit’ page:
9. Click ‘Level details’, ‘Contact details’, ‘Meeting place details’ and ‘Correspondence address’ to edit the details where applicable. The ‘Contact details’ section has spaces for separate Youth enquiry and Volunteering enquiry emails, if required. These will be where TSA sends enquiries that come in through the website.
10. Click ‘Update’ when completed.
You will still receive emails from me for inquiries made through the Barnet Borough Scouts website. I do appreciate when Groups keep me informed of their current availability, as this helps to prevent any disappointment caused by providing outdated information.
I hope that this will be of some help to at least a few people.
Kind regards
