Saltire Awards
Supported by the Scottish Government, Saltire Awards are the new Scottish awards designed to formally recognise the commitment and contribution of youth volunteering to voluntary organisations. The award enables young people to record skills, experience and learning gained through volunteering. So come along and start learning today!
Scottish Gymnastics Leadership Award
The leadership award consists of four modules focusing on the basic skills a leader needs to lead others in any sport or activity with learning delivered within a gymnastics context. The award will be followed by club support and an invitation to tap into other parts of the leadership pathway. It may be suitable for those age 12+ who are wanting to develop their leadership skills or any adult who is keen to take on more of a leadership role with their club or who has an existing role and wants to learn more about themselves and focus on their leadership soft skills. It is an accredited programme with Sports Leaders.Our Head Coach is a tutor and has aleady delivered this to some of our members. For more information about the course click here.

Committee Members
Our club wouldn't be as successful without all our the support from our committee members. We meet regularly and are always looking for committee members to take on a role to ensure everything runs smoothly. Currently we have a few vacancies... could this be you?
We are currently looking to appoint the following:
- General Committee members
Club job descriptions are available on request.
Not Sure?
We have worked with volunteers since we set up. Without volunteers we would not be able to develop our club and offer a wide range of activities to our community. Why not find out what our volunteers had to say in 2018 about their time with us and what they learnt in their time volunteering with us.
Rewarding our Volunteers
We recognise that without our volunteers we wouldn't be as successful as we are today. We work hard to recognise our volunteers with certificates for the hours they volunteer and the time they dedicate to our club. We also work hard to reward them by paying for their courses to develop the club. We also have a Volunteer handbook available on request, please just get in touch.
