After building and guiding the Meerkat Programme Team over the past few years, Brenda Timmer has asked to step down as Chair: National Meerkat Programme at the end of the year. Brenda’s enthusiasm for our youngest branch is infectious, and we thank her and the team for continuing to grow and build our Meerkat offering.

We therefore have a vacancy for an enthusiastic volunteer with an understanding of the Meerkat branch and early childhood development (ECD), to lead and grow the Meerkat Programme Team. A full Role Description can be found HERE. 

To apply, complete the application form and send it with a Scouting CV to [email protected] Closing date for applications: 6 October 2025. 

Brenda will continue to be involved in Scouting, both as a trainer with the KZN Training Team and as a resource to assist with the further development of the Meerkat Programme.
