1st Brill Scout Group
Trustees Annual Report for the year ended 31[st] March 2022
Reserves Policy
The Trustees have established a policy whereby the unrestricted funds neither designated nor invested in tangible fixed assets should be maintained at a level sufficient for them to be able to continue the current activities of the hut in the event of a significant change in income or expenditure. It would obviously be necessary to consider how funding would be replaced if the level and type of activity changed. The Trustees consider that current level of free reserves is adequate.
Investment Policy
The Trustees considered the most appropriate policy for investing surplus funds and have decided that the surplus funds should be invested with both HSBC Bank and Nationwide Building Society which are considered to be free of risk.
Responsibilities of the Trustees
The Trustees are required to prepare financial statements for each financial year, which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the 1[st] Brill Scout Group as at the balance sheet date and of its income and expenditure for the financial year. In preparing those financial statements the Trustees should follow best practice and
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and
-
that the Scout Group will continue on that basis.
The Trustees are responsible for maintaining proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of 1[st] Brill Scout Group and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements meet the requirements of the Charity Commission.
The Trustees are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the 1[st] Brill Scout Group and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The 1[st] Brill Scout Group is a Trust established under its Rules that are common to all Groups/Districts.
The Trustees are appointed in accordance with the Policy, Organisation and Rules of the Scout Association.
The Accounts have been drawn up on the Receipts and Payments basis and prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice - Accounting and Reporting by Charities.
