8. Reserves
The trustees have created a designated°Flood damage frjnd". This is funded by a le￿ on
member subscriptions.
Independent Examiner's Fees
The examiner has not charged a fee.

Treasurers report 

Income remains good from subs and rental income for use of hut continued although there was reduced grant income compared to prior year and an overall loss. (Most prior grants were Covid linked) 

Capitation expense remains high due to strong membership numbers. 

Running costs such as cleaning and utilities, continue, significant repair costs in the year for new doors and soundproofing plus alarm call out. 

A good number of camps took place this year with good participation. Beavers have had outdoor beach and ski activities and a good number from all sections attended Marra camp so figures include an increase in income and expenses for these activities. 

We also saw a good spend on badges over the year, this is evidence of the commitment in all groups in achieving success in many skills/ areas! 

The executive continue to hold reserve flood fund towards the cost of recovery from damage to the building.
