~| |Summary ofthe main
achievements
ofthe charity
during the year|||||||2022was ayear of rebuilding
for Scouting as awhole and our Group. The structure ofmeetings was
back to normal,
although
with still reduced numbers.
We note that the membership
in the younger
sections ramped
up through 2022 and into 2023, although
the Scout section still has spaces —the
tide ofmembers
fiom the younger sections will ripple upwards
over time.| ||||||||The Group had a full calendar ofactivities and camps induding afabulous
return
ofSt.George's Day
event, ajubilee-themed
family camp and a series ofsecfion camps including
the award ofa new| ||||||||Nights Away permit in the Beaver section.| ||||||||The Explorer unit isfinancially
independent
ofthe Group and has a formal partnership
with the| ||||||||Group. One ofour Explorers earned a place at the World Scout Jamboree and spent 2022
fundraising
for the trip in July 2023.| ||||||||The focus ofmuch ofthe activity remains
on badge work.| ||||||||Our Group has worked
with District to ensure
all mandatory
training
is up todate and now has a
robust pmcess for maintain DBSchecks.| ||||||||Our passbook profile is regularly
updated.| ||||||||Our financial
position remained
healthy atthe end of2022, despite the dent to income with the| ||||||||reduced
number ofmembers. Our Gift Aid claim was down due to reduced sobs. The Committee| ||||||||reviews the level of subs in relation toa budget each year and agrees the appropriate
level of subs| ||||||||and allocation ofmeeting
budgets foreach section, as well as larger expenditure
plans.| ||||||||The Group made a loss in 2022 in accordance
with the budget, met out ofreserves
built up in earlier
years
This was due tothe higher rent in line with lower subs. The loss was not as great as it might
have been, because the Group made a small profit on most activities which was used to offset the| ||||||||general deficit.| ||||||||Our Executive committee has been working
with representatives
ofSunnyside
Community
Hall| ||||||||Limited (another registered
charity) in relation to saltling and documenting
both parties shared
ownership
ofthe land where Sunnyside
Community
Hall and the store are located and have now| ||||||||agreed the terms forthe preparation
oflegal documentation.
This has taken a very long time to
achieve and dealing with the final stages was delayed
further by the pandemic
and the lack of| ||||||||availability
ofsolicitors because ofa boom in house purchasing
The legal wodi began in 2022 but
stalled again because Sunnyside
Hall received legal advice not to enter into the lease We are| ||||||||working
with Sunnyside to find a compromise
resolution
that allows the Scout Group comfort that its| ||||||||interests are acknowledged.| ||The Group's

considers that the group should

by fund raising
