Section C Objectives and Activities
The objectives of the District are as a unit of The Scout Association. 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
Summary of the objects of the charity set out in its governing communities. The method of achieving the Aim of the Association is by providing an enjoyable and
document attractive scheme of progressive training, based on the Scout Promise and Law and guided by adult
leadership. Subscriptions are charged for membership to cover the running costs of the District and these do
not unduly restrict membership. The District follows the principle that no one should be excluded because of
their inability to pay membership subscriptions
Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public
benefit in relation to these objects (include within this section The District meets the Charity Commission's public benefit criteria under both the advancement of education

Section D Achievements and Performance
In the year under review, activities for our Young People continued to grow. The Beavers, Cubs, Scouts and
Explorers have all camped at least once if not more as District sections during the year. The Squirrels have
continued to thrive, and the first Squirrels have now moved up to Beavers and we look forward to the
opening of a new Squirrel Drey in September 2024. The Beavers took part in an archery weekend and got the
chance to experience water activities at the Paddle Day. The Cubs have taken part in the District Big Splash at
Woking's Pool in the Park, a six-a-side football competition and as a Christmas treat had the chance to see
the newly released film Wonka at an exclusive screening at the cinema in Addlestone. The Scouts have again
had an extremely busy year including camps and hikes, taking part in water activities and developing key
skills. Such were their achievements that we have seen over 20 Scouts achieving their Chief Scout’s Gold
Awards. As a District we were proud to host the Chief Scout’s Gold Award Ceremony for the County in
November 2023, during which we saw a number of our Scouts being presented with their awards. A highlight
for 20 of our Scouts in 2023 was a trip to the International Scout Centre in Kandersteg (KIX23), Switzerland
for 10 days of exploration, hiking and making new friends
Our three Explorer Scout Units also had full programmes, The units have camped, taken part in the
Monopoly Run in London. In addition, there were various D of E expeditions including one on water, leading
to the award of a Diamond Chief Scout Award, two Explorer Belts, a Young Leader Belt, seven D of E Bronze
Awards and seven D of E Silver Awards. 2023 was also the year of the 25th World Scout Jamboree to South
Korea. Runnymede was proud to see a group of four Young People and five leaders attending. They all
showed great adaptability and strength of character in some challenging conditions but as always, it was a
great opportunity to build friendships and demonstrate the very best of Scouting values as well as have
some amazing experiences
Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the
The water activities Active Support Unit continued to hold intensive canoe courses for Scouts and Explorers
year
drawn from Runnymede and Woking Districts, as well as providing taster sessions for Beavers, Cubs, Scouts
and Explorers. Our thanks go to the Addlestone Canoe Club for hosting these activities. The Archery Team
attended the National Scout Archery Competition at Phasel’s Wood and returned with medals, as they
traditionally do
Although our District site at Bourne Copse was made accessible during 2022-2023, problems with
unrestrained dogs from a neighbouring property has made the site unsafe for use. Negotiations continue
with the appropriate authorities to resolve the issue so that we can safely return to the site
Adult leader training has again been to the fore during the year. As well as the usual mandatory training,
including first response courses, the District has supported through our Michael Patrick Fund attendance at
courses in archery, canoeing and minibus driving. A number of leaders have also taken part in training for
pioneering and tomahawk throwing and are now offering these activities to the young people in the District
There have been changes to the District Team this year; Sarah Stevens has stepped down from the role of
District Youth Commissioner, Zoe Coombs joined the team to offer her assistance with inclusion (SEN)
support for leaders and young people and we wish her well in this role. Sadly, our long standing Treasurer
Richard Mason was taken ill at the beginning of 2024 and tragically passed away. Richard had previously
announced his intention to step back from his role and we welcomed Andrew Fozard to work with Richard
for a hand over. We pay tribute to Richard, a true gentleman and pillar of the community and our Scout
District. Many members attended his memorial service. He will be dearly missed. We are grateful to David
Howell for acting as the Badge Secretary for the whole District and Andy Sainsbury-Brown who continues to
run the District shop. A number of adult leaders, supporters and administrators have received awards during
the year; the Trustee Board offers its congratulations to all the recipients

| • the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability | |

| Donated Services and Facilities | These are only included in incoming resources (with an equivalent amount in resources expended) where the |
