past year. Members of the Trust Board are required to complete the following mandatory training within 6 months of joining the board:
-
Module 1
-
Trustee Introduction
-
Safeguarding
-
Safety
-
GDPR (General Data Protection Regulations)
The Group Trust Board exists to make sure the charity is well-managed, risks are assessed and mitigated, buildings and equipment are in good working order, and everyone follows legal requirements and the organisation’s policies and rules. Their support helps other volunteers run high-quality and safe programmes that give young people skills for life.
Members of the Group Trust Board must act collectively as charity trustees of the Scout Group and in the best interests of its members to:
-
Comply with the Policy, Organisation and Rules of the Scout Association.
-
Protect and maintain any property and equipment owned by and/or used by the Group.

-
Promote and support the development of Scouting in the local area.
-
Manage and implement the Safety Policy locally.

Risk and Internal Control
The Group Trust Board 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 equipment – The Group would request the use of equipment from other Scout Groups. Similar reciprocal arrangements exist with these organisations. The Group has sufficient contents insurance in place to mitigate against permanent loss.

-
Injury to leaders, helpers, supporters and members – The Group supports compliance with the Safety Policy and ensures appropriate risk assessments, elimination, reduction and control measures are taken to reduce the likelihood of any injuries. In addition, through membership fees, the Group contributes to the Scout Association’s national accident insurance policy. Risk Assessments are undertaken before all activities.
-
Reduced income from fundraising – 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 Board 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 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.
-
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 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.
-
The Group has in place systems of internal controls that are designed to provide reasonable assurance against material mismanagement or loss, these include 2 signatories for all payments as well as close monitoring by the Group Treasurer and in turn the Trustee Board of all income and expenditure.

~~Pd~~ Section D – Achievements and performance
We have come to the end of yet another successful year at 2[nd] Rayleigh. We are mostly running at full capacity, and still have waiting lists of youngsters keen to join us. The waiting list has 12 children of beaver age with another 28 not old enough yet. The census this year showed a membership of 75 young people and 22 adults in scout roles. There are 28 group occasional helpers. None of these volunteers receive any payments for the roles they carry out.
Our team continue to provide programmes that are varied, exciting and challenging but always fun of course, and many of our young people have achieved Challenge and Chief Scout Awards.
A huge thank you to all our selfless and hardworking Leaders, Helpers, and other Adult Members. We could not be the successful Group we are without you all, and you make my job as Lead Volunteer much easier with your enthusiasm and dedication. I am proud to be part of such a great team.
There are also those working tirelessly behind the scenes on the Trust Board - Trevor Izod (Chairman), Paul Stanley (Treasurer) and Sue Robinson (Secretary). Their contribution is so important to ensure that the young people get the best out of Scouting.
We are seeing many changes in the Scout Association, in the way we now have to both structure and operate our Groups, and of course a lot is going digital in our changing

world, and we need to keep up with those times. The Trust Board are meeting regularly to make sure the new Scout Policies and Rules are implemented.
This will not be a problem at 2[nd] Rayleigh of course, as we face any new challenge as a stepping stone to further improve the care, opportunities and life skills we give our young people.
As we reach our milestone 100[th] year and have enjoyed and look forward to, our celebratory events, I just want to say what an achievement it is. With more than 20 of our current volunteers having dedicated 25 years or more to the Group, it is no wonder we are so successful. It is going to be a very special year for us all. Well done everybody!
Karen Vassallo Group Lead Volunteer
Health and Safety
Group activities continue to be planned and managed by leaders to mitigate risks. There were no major accidents.
Training
All training is fully up-to-date.
Section E - Financial Review ~~Ct~~
The financial report for 2023/24 has been subject to independent scrutiny and has been found to be an accurate reflection of the Group’s financial position.
Fundraising events were well supported and raised £4573.00 in the past year. We were successful in applying for a grant amounting to £850.00 from Rayleigh Town Council.
Although the cost of delivering Scouting has been increasing, subscriptions have been held at the same rate since September 2021. However, a further increase has been agreed from September 2024.
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.
Investment Policy
The Group does not have sufficient funds to invest in longer term investments such as stocks and shares. The Group has therefore adopted a low-risk strategy to the investment of its funds. All funds are held in cash using only mainstream banks or building societies.

GROUP CHAIR’S REPORT
Hello and welcome to the 2[nd] Rayleigh Annual Report. This is our centenary year and we are working hard to organise a couple of events to celebrate this milestone.
This last year has seen a full program of events including a variety of visits and nights away. Plenty of badge work and many awards have been achieved. The section leader’s reports give a full picture of the year’s activities.
I would like to thank all the Section Leaders, Team Members and Team Helpers for their dedication to the young people and for the work that they have put in over the past year, organising and fitting in a packed schedule.
Trevor Izod Group Chair
BEAVER COLONY REPORT
We have had another successful year in the Beaver Colony. We are still full with 24 beavers and a very long waiting list.
At our weekly meetings we have worked on many of the activity badges and challenge awards. Some of the highlights have included a visit to the Lifeboat station at Southend (World), riding our bikes (Cyclist), making water filters (Global), learning about festivals from different religions (Faith), dropping eggs from the top of the church tower (Skills) and holding our bi-annual Mother’s Day pamper evening. We also celebrated the coronation of our new king, Charles III. The beavers have started completing various tasks as part of the Essex Challenge 2024, which will help them develop their skills whilst earning lots of badges along the way.
We have enjoyed several nights away, ending the summer term with our sleepover at Ark Lane and attending a Lego-themed sleepover at Braintree Museum in November. We also joined the cubs at Ninja Warrior in Chelmsford and were the first group to ever spend the night there.
We have attended several district events this year. Our oldest beavers took part in the District Hike in September, hiking an impressive 7 miles from Cherry Orchard to Hockley Woods and back again before several of them camped at Belchamps for the night. We had a good turnout for the pantomime of “Peter Pan” in December which was thoroughly enjoyed by all. We also competed in the Fun Run in May and the Swimming Gala in February. Well done to everyone who has represented our colony this year.
Most of our older beavers have gone on to gain the Chief Scout Bronze Award, which is the highest award that a beaver scout can get. This takes a lot of work and commitment to the colony and we are very proud of their efforts. Well done to Harry Berwick, Joseph

Axcell, Oscar Stubley, Charlotte Starkey, Indigo Davis, Jack Pool, Archie Holmes, Archie Davies, Phoebe Knox and Oliver Cuthbert, many of whom have since joined the Cub Pack. Several of our other Beavers are very close to getting the bronze with only one or two more challenges to complete.
I would like to take this opportunity to say a big thank you to our adult helpers – Matt (Bear), Colin (Badger), Pam (Leopard) and Andy (Otter) and to our young leaders – Luke (Hippo), Meredith (Mouse), Ruby (Hedgehog), Tiyanni (Squirrel) and Jack (Meerkat) for their continued help and assistance which is very much appreciated. I would also like to thank all the parents who support our activities, enabling the colony to go out and about on our many adventures.
Alison Jones “Rabbit” Beaver Colony Team Leader
CUB PACK REPORT
Another year gone! I am thrilled to see so many cubs progress through from beavers into cubs and then onto scouts. It gives me great pride to be a part of scouting, each cub walks a different path
and to enable them with new skillsets and opportunities is a fantastic pleasure to have! The effort and fun the cubs have is second to none, they are always smiling and upbeat, even if some of our camps are under water!
It is incredible to see so many cubs achieve their Chief Scout Silver Award in addition to other core, challenge and activity badges! We are always looking to mix things up to keep their cub experience fresh and evolving, a key part that allows us to achieve this, is giving the chance to the cubs to say what they would like to do and building on that, delivering skillsets in a unique and engaging manner!
The highlights of the year stem from our camps, in all sorts of conditions to the more physically demanding sleepovers, more recently at Ninja Warrior! Keeping the cubs moving is key, it also helps with getting them to bed! We like to acknowledge the efforts of our cubs, our annual firework display which is sponsored by a local company, the termly treats and anything we can throw at them!
Every cub is credit to themselves, their parents and to the Scouting movement! I would like to conclude by thanking the endless support from the 2[nd] Rayleigh Cub Scout Team, Bev, Pat, Jeremy, Cameron, Violet, Ethan, Ryan, Janet, Karen, Hannah. The support from the rest of the Section leaders is greatly appreciated, thank you Alison, Simon & Karen!

SCOUT TROOP REPORT
Another year has gone by and another year of scouting completed! It has been great to continue the journey of scouting by welcoming the older cubs and soon some new Scouts coming up to join the troop. We have ten scouts and five possible new Scouts about to start including two moving from another group, but we did have five age out during the year and they have now moved onto the Explorers section.
We completed an outdoor night away in July at Ark Lane while the Beavers and Cubs were staying in the lodge and while there it helped me achieve my night’s away permit. The scouts have taken part in various activities this year including cooking on open fires, hot air balloons using space blankets, making stretchers, pasta bridges, cooking pancakes in the kitchen and cooking burgers on Trangia’s and played Unihoc, minefields and other games. The scouts also enjoyed two cold nights at Belchamp’s on the archery and air rifle ranges and a couple of hikes were undertaken in the local area, including the popular chip shop hike at the end of term.
We have also competed in some district events with three scouts completing the shooting competition and seven scouts entered the Unihoc competition where they came third out of the twelve teams, well done to all those for attending. Some of the scouts and their families also attended the pantomime ‘Peter Pan’ at the Cliffs Pavilion in December and some of the scouts attended the Renewal of Promise on a wet day in April.
I would like to thank the 2[nd] Rayleigh Scout Team who regularly come along to help as without this none of the above could happen so thanks to Bryne, Matt, Nick and Bailey for their commitment and support during the meetings.

VIKING ll – SCOUT ACTIVE SUPPORT (SAS)
In April 2023 a party from the group entered the Scout Monopoly Run in London. Martin organised the event and they had a wonderful day exploring some great parts of our capital city with thousands of Scouts from around the country.
A number of SAS members helped and supported the Beaver and Cub weekend camp at a soggy Guidewoods in April.
In May Pete and Christine organised a lovely evening at the Rayleigh Museum. The event had a little bit of everything; wine tasting, food, quiz and a very interesting local history talk from Mike Davies.
In June last year the group returned to Beccles for another summer camp, with a great turn out. A day was spent canoeing and paddleboarding on the river Waveney followed

by a lovely meal in the evening at The Fleece. Derek, Sue and Martin organised the weekend where a small raffle to raise some funds for the group took place. Mike led us on an historical London walk during July, where we learnt some hilarious history about the nightlife during the Georgian times, and how the economy relied on the ‘business’.
One very popular event that took place in September was the visit to Barnards Farm that Deb organised. It was a really interesting place, run by an extraordinary man, and I look forward visiting it myself.
Also, in September we returned to the New Forest for the Essex Scout Marathon, this year running a base, and saw some fantastic groups of young Scouts out in the forest, helping each other, and enjoying each other’s company.
SAS Members helped with the Beaver pack overnight stay at Guidewoods in early October.
The SAS AGM was held at The Rayleigh Conservative Club in November where it was agreed to donate £200 to the 2[nd] Rayleigh Scouts.
December saw Deb host a cosy mulled wine and mince pie Christmas get together at her home.
To work off the indulgence, Trevor organised his annual Christmas walk which this year was around Althorne.
A hardy bunch of regulars joined organiser Dave at the January Winter Camp at Riffhams Lane – camp safety was a priority and there were no broken bones at this year’s event! Derek and Sue once again travelled from the far corner of Essex to host Ten Pin Bowling for the group in Hockley during February.
In March Bevely and Tony organised a talk in The Underspire where we were very well informed and entertained about the experience of a £10 POM.
In March a number of SAS members supported the County Backpack event by running bases.
A full programme of events will be continuing throughout the year and new members and friends are warmly welcome to attend.
