B. Achievements and performance
| Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year |
The County Scout Centre continues to be used for adult training weekends, County Trustee Board meetings, Section based activities and large scale, whole County events. It has also soon the continued use by external agencies. International Scouting events have now fully returned including a World Scout Jamboree to South Korea in July 2023, European skiing expeditions in Italy and Andorra and numerous nights’ away experiences both within the County and at campsites and venues outside of the County. In addition to this, the County Activities Team held their Mid-Winter Expedition between Christmas and the New Year at Ingleton, North Yorkshire. Training for Adult Leaders, Managers and Supporters has been and continues to be successfully delivered using a combination of both face to face and online delivered training session by members of the County Adult Training Team and locally, within Districts, by suitably qualified and experienced leaders. This training has included mandatory ongoing learning for example, safety, safeguarding, GDPR, Trustee Introductory and First Aid training. County led face to face training has predominantly taken place at Wiltshire Scout Centre. As a result of the additional mandatory training and support offered, the number of those outstanding in safety and safeguarding training has significantly reduced to below the HQ directed maximum of 5% of membership and is currently just 1% of the total adult membership for the County, with a number of Districts reporting 0%, ensuring that our membership remains compliant with our Policy, Organisation, Rules and central directives. In line with our growth and development over the reporting period, our Squirrel, Beaver, Cub, Scout, Explorer and Network members from all seven Districts continue to deliver exciting and fun-packed quality programmes and therefore meeting our skills for life objectives, including taking part in The Scout Association’s national activities and events. The focus continues to be on recruiting, inducting, training and retaining young people and adult volunteers that will enable those young people currently on waiting lists join Scouting and learn valuable skills for life. In support of this, the County has recruited two Local Growth Assistants and a Local Growth officer, managed by the County Growth Lead and officers of the HQ Local Growth and Communities Team, who will work on specified projects across all areas of the County to ensure that we continue to grow as a youth organisation in Wiltshire. |

| C. Finance review |
|
|---|---|
| Policy on Reserves | The total funds are £800,100 of which £96,220 are restricted for specific purposes, including for legacies gifted. Of the total funds, £507,897 are held as fixed assets (including the Wiltshire Scout Centre). At 31st March 2024 the charity had net unrestricted current assets of £203,943, which includes deferred and amounts received in advance for future events. The County’s policy on reserves has been to hold the equivalent of a year’s lettings plus a fund for redecorating the centre every four years and to be able to continue with our development work on growing the movement. This equates to £30,000. Any additional funds will be to develop the activities offering made available at the centre and to support development and Scouting across the County, including supporting Districts and Groups facing financial difficulties, and also to support the return to Scouting. |

Wiltshire Scout Council
Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2024
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of preparing the financial statements
The financial statements of the charity, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with 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) (effective 1 January 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Charities Act 2011. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.
The charity has taken exemption from preparing a cash flow statement under the charities SORP as it constitutes a small charity. The financial statements have been prepared to give a 'true and fair view' and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a 'true and fair view'. This departure has involved following the 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 (FRS102) issued on 16 July 2014 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.
The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention, modified to include certain items at fair value. The financial statements are prepared in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity and rounded to the nearest pound.
There are no significant areas of judgements or key sources of estimation uncertainty.
The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the Charity's ability to be a going concern.
The Charity is an unincorporated trust. The charity's governing documents are those of The Scout Association and consist of a Royal Charter.
Income
All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.
Membership subscriptions Membership subscriptions collected on behalf of other parts of the Scout Movement are reported in the SoFA net of any amount paid out. This is because these subscriptions are in affect held as agents before being paid out.
Grants and donations Grants and donations are only included in the SoFA when the charity has unconditional entitlement to the resources.
Tax reclaim on donations and gifts Incoming resources from tax reclaims are included in the SoFA at the same time as the gift to which they relate.
Donated services and facilities are only included in incoming resources (with an equivalent amount in resources expended) where the benefit to the charity is reasonably quantifiable, measurable, and material. The value placed on these resources is the estimated value to the charity of the service or facility received.
For legacies, entitlement is taken as the earlier of the date on which either: the charity is aware that probate has been granted, the estate has been finalised and notification has been made by the executor(s) to the Trust that a distribution will be made, or when a distribution is received from the estate. Receipt of a legacy, in whole or in part, is only considered probable when the amount can be measured reliably and the charity has been notified of the executor's intention to make a distribution. Where legacies have been notified to the charity, or the charity is aware of the granting of probate, and the criteria for income recognition have not been met, then the legacy is a treated as a contingent asset and disclosed if material.
Investment income is included in the accounts when receivable
Expenditure
Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
