Trustees report – 2020 – 2021
We have found this year difficult with the continuation of Covid 19. We remained virtual for a proportion of the year and ensured our young people knew we were still there for them to have fun.
We are very grateful for the grants we received and we have been using these to provide fun and exciting experiences for the members now that we are back to face to face scouting. We have been partaking in water sports and other activities such as archery and fencing.
We have also use funds to continue with updating our hall and equipment to ensure these fun experiences can continue.
We are looking forward to more face to face scouting so we can expand our members experiences and continue to promote the traditional fundamentals of scouting.

First Hamworthy Scout Group
Independent Examiner’s Report to the Trustees of First Hamworthy Scout Group
I report on the Financial Statements of the Charity for the year ended 31 March 2021.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act)) and that an independent examination is needed.
Having satisfied myself that the Charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:
-
Examine the accounts (under section 145 of the 2011 Act);
-
To follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act), and
-
To state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner’s report
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 you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent examiner’s statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
-
which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect the requirements:
-
a. to keep accounting records in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act; and
-
b. to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting record, comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities
have not been met; or
- to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
