**1[st] Apsley Scout Group** Annual report and financial statements Year ended 31 August 2021 

**Trustees’ annual report** 

## **Trustees’ annual report** 

The Board of Trustees submit their annual report and the financial statements of 1[st] Apsley Scout Group for the year ended 31 August 2021. The Board of Trustees confirms that the annual report and financial statements of the Charity comply with current statutory requirements, including the Charity Act 2011, as well as the requirements of the Charity's governing document and the provisions of the ‘Charities SORP (FRS 102) - Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) second edition (effective 1 January 2019)’, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102). 

## **Objectives and activities** 

## **Objects** 

lake, weed doing its best to take over.  The range was adapted for wet weather use preventing other activities from going ahead. 

At the time of the Census in January our membership had dropped slightly, but far less than the rate seen in other groups in Hertfordshire. This meant our subs income remained stable, it was only our fundraising events that were unable to go ahead. 

We have again seen some leadership changes, welcoming some new faces but also saying farewell to others. 

There have been changes to our executive committee; David Woodall has stood down after a long period as Chair; the group has benefited from his input and would like to record our thanks for all he has done. Throughout the process of determining these commitments, the Trustees confirm that they have complied with the duty in section 4 of the Charities Act 2006 to have due regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission in determining the activities undertaken by the Charity. 

The objectives of the group are as a unit of the Scout 

Association. 

## **Plans for the future** 

The Aim of The Scout Association is to promote the development of young people in achieving their full physical, intellectual, social and spiritual potentials, as individuals, as responsible citizens and as members of their local, national and international communities. The method of achieving the Aim of the Association is by providing an enjoyable and attractive scheme of progressive training, based on the Scout Promise and Law and guided by adult leadership. 

## **Achievements and performance for 2020-2021** 

As the year started, we were looking to restart face to face scouting following the first national lockdown; meetings were very different, small ‘bubbles’ and an emphasis on being outside. As ever our resilient leader team took this, and the other changes needed to survive the pandemic, in their stride, adapted their programmes and continued to offer a fantastic programme.  There were many fires, various foods were cooked, hikes were popular and other activities were adapted to the outdoors.  Sadly this was short term, there was a mini local lockdown in November, we returned to Zoom and whilst some sections held a couple of face to face meetings in December by the New Year we were back in lockdown and ran a whole term’s programme, plus a camp at home in the term running up to Easter.  The summer saw a return to face to face scouting, again outside but the long light evenings made it easier to introduce a wider variety of activities.  Badges were awarded both whilst on Zoom and when face to face, including completion of Chief Scouts Awards. 

Two Waters Activities were limited in what they could offer – a year with no use had as adverse effect on the 

As this Scouting year ends our plans are focussed on the full return to Scouting, including camps and other events outside of the weekly meetings.  Long term we are still looking to extend our HQ but this is tied in with other developments in the surrounding area.  Work is going ahead to maintain and where possible, improve our HQ. 

The executive committee continue to support the GSL in managing the provision of Scouting, in whatever form, to our members. 

Our leadership team would always welcome new members; Arky, our GSL will be more than happy you tell you about the different roles you could take and where you could contribute the most to the group. If you’re not sure try a visit to one of our sections, you will be made very welcome. 

## **Financial review** 

During the current financial year the Charity achieved a surplus of £11,990 (2020: £13,083), increasing total reserves at year end to £67,470 (2020: £55,480). 

Of the total reserves held at year end £67,470 was unrestricted in nature (2020: £54,100). 

## **Reserves policy** 

The Group's policy on reserves is to hold sufficient resources to continue the charitable activities of the group should income and fundraising activities fall short. The Group Executive Committee has always considered that the group should hold a sum

**Trustees’ annual report**

equivalent to 3 months running costs (c. £10,800). The Group held unrestricted reserves of £67,470 against this at year end. This is above the level required for operating expenses. However, this was done to ensure a safe working margin, especially considering the environment at reporting date and uncertainties caused by the COVID-19 global pandemic. 

The group understands the Charity Commission is reviewing its guidance on reserves – once this is received the Executive Committee will review our policy. 

## **Structure, governance and management** 

## **Governing document** 

The Group's governing documents are those of the “The Scout Association”. They consist of a Royal Charter, which in turn gives authority to the Bye Laws of the Association and The Policy, Organisation and Rules of The Scout Association. 

## **Recruitment and appointment of trustees** 

The Trustees are appointed in accordance with the Policy, Organisation and Rules of The Scout Association, including the following policies - appointing Group Administrators and Advisors other than those who are elected; the raising of funds and the administration of Group finance; the insurance of persons, property and equipment; and, Group public occasions. 

## **Organisational structure** 

The Group is managed by the Group Executive Committee, the members of which are the ‘Charity Trustees’ of the Scout Group which is an educational Charity. As Charity Trustees they are responsible for complying with legislation applicable to charities. This includes the registration, keeping proper accounts and making returns to the Charity Commission as appropriate. 

The Committee consists of 3 independent representatives, Chair, Treasurer and Secretary, together with the Group Scout Leader, the Group Administrator and parent representation whom meet every 2 months. There has been a change to the rule relating to Section Leaders being Trustees of the Charity - they now have the right to choose to ‘opt in’ and if doing so are expected to play an active role in the running of the Group; some have opted to do this. Assistant Section Leaders are not normally Trustees. 

This Group Executive Committee exists to support the Group Scout Leader in meeting the responsibilities of the appointments and is responsible for: The maintenance of Group property; Assisting in the recruitment of leaders and other adult support; appointing any sub committees that may be required; 

Appointing Group Administrators and Advisors other than those who are elected. 

## **Risk and internal control** 

The Group Executive Committee has identified the major risks to which they believe the Group is exposed, these have been reviewed and systems have been established to mitigate against them. The main areas of concern that have been identified are: 

Damage to the building, property and equipment – the Group would request the use  of  buildings, property and equipment from neighbouring organisations such as the church, community centre and other Scout Groups. Similar reciprocal arrangements exist with these organisations. The Group has sufficient buildings and contents insurance in place to mitigate against permanent loss. 

Injury to leaders, helpers, supporters, and members - The Group through the capitation fees contributes to the Scout Associations national accident insurance policy. Risk Assessments are undertaken before all activities. 

Reduced income from fund raising - The Group is primarily reliant upon income from subscriptions and fundraising. The group does hold a reserve to ensure the continuity of activities should there be a major reduction in income. The Committee could raise the value of subscriptions to increase the income to the group on an ongoing basis, either temporarily or permanently. 

Reduction or loss of members - The Group provides activities for all young people aged 6 to 14. If there was a reduction in membership in a particular Section or the Group as whole, then there would have to be a contraction, consolidation or closure of a Section. In the worst case scenario, the complete closure of the Group. 

Reduction or loss of leaders - The Group is totally reliant upon volunteers to run and administer the activities of the Group. If there was a reduction in the number of leaders to an unacceptable level in a particular Section or the Group as a whole then there would have to be a contraction, consolidation or closure of a Section. In the worst case scenario, the complete closure of the Group. 

## **Statement of board of trustees’ responsibilities** 

The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations. 

Charity law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law they are required to prepare the financial statements in accordance with UK Accounting Standards and 

Registered charity no 1019552

**Trustees’ annual report** 

## **1[st] Apsley Scout Group** 

Annual report and financial statements Year ended 31 August 2021 

applicable law (UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), including FRS 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland. 

Under charity law the Trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Charity and of the excess of income over expenditure for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

This report was approved and authorised for issue by the Board of Trustees on 6 April 2022 and signed on its behalf by: 

Louise Grimwood 

**Group Secretary** 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- • state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and, 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Charity will continue its activities. 

The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the Charity’s transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011. They have general responsibility for taking such steps as are reasonably open to them to safeguard the assets of the Charity and to prevent and detect fraud and other irregularities. 

The Trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the Charity’s website. 

Legislation in the UK governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions. In addition, the Trustees confirm that they are happy that the content of the Annual Review in pages 3-5 of this document as well as the legal and administrative information on page 2, meet the requirements of the Trustees’ Annual Report under Charity law. 

They also confirm that the financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in the notes to the accounts and comply with the Charity’s governing document, the Charities Act 2011 and Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with FRS 102, The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland published on 16 July 2014.

**Independent examiner’s report** 

## **Independent examiner’s report to the board of trustees of 1[st] Apsley Scout Group** 

I report to the Trustees on my examination of the accounts of 1[st] Apsley Scout Group (charity number 1019552) for the year ended 31 August 2021 set out on pages 7 to 18. 

## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner** 

The Charity's Trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act). The Charity’s Trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act and that an independent examination is needed. 

It is my responsibility to: 

- examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act; 

- to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act; and, 

- to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

This report, including my statement, has been prepared for and only for the Charity’s Trustees as a body. My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the Charity’s Trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an independent examiner’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Charity and the Charity’s Trustees as a body for my examination work, for this report, or for the statements I have made. 

## **Basis of independent examiner’s statement** 

My examination was carried out in accordance with general directions given by the Charity Commission.  An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the Charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records.  It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the Trustees concerning any such matters. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect: 

- accounting records were not kept in respect of the Charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or, 

- the accounts do not accord with those records; or, 

- the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair’ view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination. 

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

**1[st] Apsley Scout Group** Annual report and financial statements Year ended 31 August 2021 

**Notes to the financial statements** 

## **Notes to the financial statements** 

## **1. Accounting policies** 

## **Basis of preparation of the financial statements** 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with ‘Charities SORP (FRS 102) - Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) second edition (effective 1 January 2019)’, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011. 

The effect of any event relating to the year ended 31 August 2021, which occurred before the date of approval of the financial statements by the Board of Trustees has been included in the financial statements to the extent required to show a true and fair view of the state of affairs at 31 August 2021 and the results for the period ended on that date. 

The functional currency of the Charity is sterling. 

The amounts in the financial statements are rounded to the nearest pound. 

Under the exemption available to smaller charities the Board of Trustees has chosen not to include a Statement of Cash Flows within the financial statements. 

## **Going concern** 

The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis as the Board of Trustees is confident that future reserves and future income is more than sufficient to meet current commitments. There are no material uncertainties that impact this assessment and the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has had no material impact on this assessment. 

## **Legal status** 

1[st] Apsley Scout Group is a charitable trust registered in England and Wales, and meets the definition of a public benefit entity. In the event of the Charity being wound up, the Trustees of the Charity hold no liability. The registered address is Apsley Scout HQ, Durrants Hill Road, Hemel Hempstead, Hertfordshire, HP3 9HY. 

## **Fund accounting** 

General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the Charity and which have not been designated for other purposes. 

Restricted funds are funds that are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or that have been raised by the Charity for particular purposes. The cost of raising and administering such funds are charged against the 

specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in note 10 of the financial statements. 

## **Income** 

Income is recognised when the Charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance indicators attached to the item(s) of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received, and the amount can be measured reliably. 

Donations and investitures are recognised in full in the Statement of Financial Activities when entitled, receipt is probable and when the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy. Gift aid receivable is included when claimable. 

Grant income is credited to the Statement of Financial Activities when received or receivable whichever is earlier, unless the grant relates to a future period, in which case it is deferred. 

Income from charitable and trading activities is credited to the Statement of Financial Activities when received or receivable whichever is earlier, unless it relates to a specific future period or event, in which case it is deferred. 

## **Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT** 

All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been included under expense categories that aggregate all costs for allocation to activities. 

Indirect costs, including governance costs, which cannot be directly attributed to activities, are allocated directly to charitable activities as any fundraising costs are immaterial. A breakdown of these expenses is outlined in note 5 of the financial statements. 

Irrecoverable VAT is charged against the category of expenditure for which it was incurred. 

## **Tangible fixed assets and depreciation** 

All assets costing more than £500 are capitalised. 

Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less depreciation. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of fixed assets, less their residual value, over their useful life, on the following basis: 


## **Cash at bank and in hand** 

Cash at bank and in hand includes cash in hand, deposits with banks and funds that are readily convertible into cash at, or close to, their carrying values, but are not held for investment purposes. 

Registered charity no. 1019552

**Notes to the financial statements** 

**1[st] Apsley Scout Group** Annual report and financial statements Year ended 31 August 2021 

## **Debtors and prepayments** 

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount is applied. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due. 

## **Creditors and accruals** 

Creditors are recognised where the Charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party, and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. 

## **Financial instruments** 

## **Critical estimates and judgements** 

In preparing financial statements it is necessary to make certain judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts recognised in the financial statements. The treatment of tangible fixed assets is sensitive to changes in useful economic lives and residual values of assets. These are reassessed annually. 

In the view of the Trustees in applying the accounting policies adopted, no judgements were required that have a significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements nor do any estimates or assumptions made carry a significant risk of material adjustment in the next financial year. 

Basic financial instruments are measured at amortised cost other than investments which are measured at fair value.
