The Mounthurst Scouts and Guides Trust (“the Trust”) was formed with the purpose of raising funds for a building to replace the existing premises used for Scout and Guide meetings in Mounthurst Road, Hayes, Kent. The Trust has no direct relationship with the Scouts, the Girl Guides or the United Reformed Church Southern Synod, which holds the land and existing building in trust for the Hayes Free Church. However, the Trust operates with the co-operation and goodwill of these organisations. The Trust’s activities are simple and do not carry a high financial or operational risk. The main risks to its objectives are the failure to raise sufficient funds to achieve its aims. The Trustees are confident that they have sufficient mitigations for these risks in the form of their own experience or that of any advisers they employ from time to time.
- trustees’ consideration of major risks and the system and procedures to manage them.
