**NORTHOLT (WOOD END) SCOUT GROUP**
## **Charity Registration Number 1048150**
## **Trustees Annual Report for the year ended 31st March 2021**
## **MAJOR ACTIVITIES AND ACHIEVEMENTS IN THE YEAR**
## **The purpose of Scouting**
Scouting exists to actively engage and support young people in their personal development, empowering them to make a positive contribution to society.
## **The values of Scouting**
As Scouts we are guided by these values:
**Integrity** - We act with integrity; we are honest, trustworthy and loyal.
**Respect** - We have self-respect and respect for others.
**Care** - We support others and take care of the world in which we live.
**Belief** - We explore our faiths, beliefs and attitudes.
**Co-operation** - We make a positive difference; we co-operate with others and make friends.
## **The Scout Method**
Scouting takes place when young people, in partnership with adults, work together based on the values of Scouting and:
- enjoy what they are doing and have fun
- take part in activities indoors and outdoors
- learn by doing
- share in spiritual reflection
- take responsibility and make choices
- undertake new and challenging activities
- make and live by their Promise.
The Group consisted of 30 youth members covering the Beaver Scouts, Cub Scouts, Scout and Young Leader sections. In addition, there were adults involved as leaders or administrators - all of whom gave their services voluntarily.
COVID-19 has restricted much of the Group’s activities and alternative methods of meeting have been used where possible.
- Meetings via Zoom, Meetings outside with restricted number of young people.
Grants from HM Government have helped to defray the loss of fund raising, subscriptions and Group running costs.

Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity trustees of the 2[nd] Northolt (Wood End) Scout Group you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’).
I report in respect of my examination of the 2[nd] Northolt (Wood End) Scout Group accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
