Selby Scouts Annual Report & Accounts 2025
selbyscouts.org.uk #SkillsForLife
Welcome.
This is a special opportunity to reflect on the achievements of our Scouts over the past year, to recognise the dedication of our incredible volunteers, and to look ahead to the exciting adventures still to come.
Thank you for being part of our Scouting family and for your continued support across the Selby District. A special thank you goes to our District Trustee Board for their ongoing guidance and support—your efforts truly make a difference, and we are incredibly grateful.
I would also like to extend my heartfelt thanks to Carl for all his hard work and dedication as District Lead Volunteer. I know I have some big shoes to fill [literally], and I’m honoured to follow in his footsteps.
As I step into this new role, my goal over the next couple of months is to visit all the groups in our District. I want to listen, learn, and explore how we can grow and strengthen our Scouting community—together.
Here’s to another year of adventure, growth, and making a positive impact.
Lucy Mann
District Lead Volunteer
Welcome to Selby District Scout’s Annual Report for 2024/25. Included you will find our financial statements alongside key achievements from the groups across district and our assets.
As a Trustee board we are always on the look out for new ideas to add value to our Young People’s experience in Scouting and doing so safely.
I hope you enjoy reading through our report and thank you to those who have been involved.

Explorer Scouts
We have 31 Explorers on the books, the majority are also young leaders. Sadly between January and May we lost 6, who all turned 18yrs old. But on an up note four of them have taken on adult roles. In another good note we have had 7 young leaders complete their training and have been awarded their young leader buckle.
We have a new executive, and they are helping plan and organise the programme which has come from the rest of the explorers, we also recently re-vamped our code of conduct, although it still involves chocolate buttons!
In July several explorers and leaders are heading to Denmark for them to do their explorer belt challenge. We also run sessions for the D of E, all levels.
Past activities have included global issues, learning to say the scout promise in another language, food from America, tin can cooking, and helping out at the working days at Olympia hq & Tamarak campsite.

District Explorer Scout Commissioner
Tamarak Campsite
Looking back on the last year Tamarak has seen several large projects including that of the replacement of the toilet facilities by grant funding, new fitted out disabled provision toilet, sub-contracted repair to our cabins following storm damage amongst other maintenance / up-keep.
The site operations team continue to develop new ideas of increasing our facilities and footfall / revenue to enable re-investment to the site.
Activites such as Axe-throwing are now offered alongside a site marquee available for hire and our newly fitted Tuck Shop is now open.
We are already thinking of our next projects and actively speaking with business contacts for their kind support.
Thank you to all that use our site and to the team(s) that are part of its’ operation.

Our Groups
1st Monk Fryston & Hillam
What an incredible year it’s been for MFH! We wrapped up the 2023/24 year with a bang at Larkin ’24, North Yorkshire’s Jamboree. This was our Group’s very first week-long camping adventure, and it was packed with laughter, challenges, and unforgettable memories for everyone involved.
Our Scout Troop, while facing a drop in numbers as older Scouts moved on, has shown real spirit and resilience. The younger members who’ve joined from Cubs are bringing fresh energy, and we’ve seen a dynamic shuffle in patrols. We’re proud to announce our oldest Scout has stepped up as Senior Patrol Leader—a fantastic achievement! Although no Chief Scout Gold Awards were earned this year, a handful of Challenge Awards have kept spirits high. We’re working hand-inhand with other Troops and the District Programme Team to supercharge our programme and help our Scouts aim for the top awards.
Our Cub Pack and Beaver Colony have continued to thrive, with a small but steady waiting list—a testament to the excitement and adventure these sections offer. We’ve celebrated 3 Chief Scout Silver Awards and 8 Chief Scout Bronze Awards—a wonderful reflection of all the hard work and enthusiasm from our young people and their leaders.
Recruitment is always on our radar, and this year we’re launching a renewed campaign to bring in new members and helpers to support our section programmes and Trustee roles. It’s all about ensuring we can continue to deliver the best Scouting experience for our young people.
A huge and heartfelt thank you goes out to all our dedicated adult volunteers. Your time, energy, and commitment make everything possible—from providing governance to crafting unforgettable experiences for our young people.
Here’s to another fantastic year ahead, filled with adventure, friendship, and even more memories to be made

1st Staynor Hall
This past year has been one of growth, achievement, and exciting new experiences for our Scout Group. While we welcomed three new trustees to our team, we also bid farewell to a valued Beaver leader. Despite this transition, our Beaver section remains at full capacity with a small waiting list, our Cub section has seen steady growth, and while our Scout section is currently down in numbers, we anticipate a positive influx in the coming months.
Badge achievements have been plentiful across all sections. Our Beavers earned an impressive 348 badges, including 6 Chief Scout Bronze Awards. Cubs were awarded 324 badges, with 6 Chief Scout Silver Awards among them. Scouts received 162 badges, and for the first time in our group’s history, four of our members are on track to complete their final challenge badge elements to achieve the prestigious Chief Scout Gold Award before the end of this term.
Beyond badges, our sections have embraced a variety of activities and adventures. Each group had the unique experience of walking out as mascots for Selby Football Club. We attended engaging activity days at Squirrel Wood and Tablers Wood and organized several camps, from indoor experiences at Tablers Wood to traditional outdoor adventures under canvas. Our Scout section accomplished two exciting milestones: their first-ever hammock camp and their first exploration camp, where Scouts navigated public transport to reach their accommodation. Meanwhile, Cubs upheld their cherished tradition of a narrowboat camp in September, and Beavers embarked on their first Jedi-themed camp.
We are also proud to highlight the exceptional efforts of one of our Scouts, who was recently featured on the North Yorkshire Scout website and social media for his outstanding support of the community centre where our group is based.
1st Riccall
It’s been a year of consolidation for 1st Riccall, as our mostly new team of volunteers gain experience and skills, undertake training, and wrestle with the new IT system! We’re still heavily focussed on recruitment, to ensure we have enough capacity and resilience across all 3 of our sections.
It was also another year of growth, with our capitation growing from 37 to 44, a 19% increase. We’re expecting to see further growth in September as another cohort of young people move sections and from our waiting list.
We had another very successful joint Cub and Scout camp in May, this time at Melton in East Yorkshire. The majority of our Beavers will have their first night away with us later this month at the Damboree up the road at Murton Park. We’ll be combining forces with Thorpe Willoughby when some of our Scouts attend Ignite at Stockeld Park.
We’re continuing to build strong connections with the local community, regularly visiting and helping out at the Riccall Woodmeadow, fundraising at the Riccall Dickensian Fair, and playing a key role at the Remembrance Day and Christingle services at St Mary’s Church.
Financially the Group approximately broke even, excluding some one-off equipment purchases. We’ll be looking into grants and other ways to raise money for further equipment purchases we need to make in the coming.
Geoff Kirk
Group Lead Volunteer
Looking ahead, all sections continue to build upon their dynamic rolling programme of activities. Immediate plans include participation in Junior Warrior for all sections and an eagerly awaited Damboree event for our Beavers at the end of the month.
As we reflect on a year filled with accomplishments and memorable moments, we remain committed to providing exciting opportunities, fostering leadership skills, and ensuring that scouting continues to thrive in our community.

1st Selby (Abbey)
Another year passes and we’re back at the AGM, after the success of the BBQ last year, it was only right that we re-did it this year.
Our group has grown and weathered the many storms of the last year with an exciting program of activities and camps, culminating in the Group Camp and AGM this weekend.
I want to say a huge thank you to the leaders,
I want to say a huge thank you to the leaders, parents and most importantly, our young people for making their and our scouting experience the best it can be!
We have challenges in the number of available leaders, so appeal to your good selves to please step forward and help, especially for our Squirrel and Beaver section.
We’re always looking to improve what we offer to our members so please if you have any thoughts, or would like to get involved, please let us know.
Here's to the next year!
Ian Vinton
6th Selby (Brayton)
This year has been one of significant change for the 6th Selby (Brayton) Scout Group. Since I joined as the Group Lead Volunteer in September, we have navigated the complexities of the Scouts national transformation initiative and tackled several other challenges, aiming to provide stability and set a solid foundation from which to evolve.
Maintaining our Assets
Replacing the group’s van and maintaining essential equipment have been key challenges this year. While the van replacement was successfully accomplished, ongoing efforts have been required to ensure all equipment remains in suitable condition. The finance team has done an impressive job raising funds to support asset replacement, with additional support coming from the Co-op community scheme.
The Squirrels drey has shown steady growth and development through the year. The Section Team has worked hard to deliver a consistent and engaging weekly programme for our youngest members. Activities have included hiking, litter picking, bowling, exploring Brayton Barff, Pancake flipping and Tiger Worms.
Group Lead Volunteer
The Beaver section remains highly popular, with Shanto and Sorian Colonies providing engaging and diverse programmes for young members. Both colonies follow a unified programme. This year’s meetings have been filled with creativity and exploration, with Beavers participating in exciting activities such as narrowboat trips, crafting for occasions like Mother’s Day and Easter, and celebrating Pancake Day with lively flips and fun. They explored the fundamentals of Scouting, learned about internet safety, and even earned badges like the Air Activities and Communicator badges.
Gold Pack and Scarlet Pack both underwent notable changes this year,
including leadership shifts and new volunteers. Together, they provided dynamic programmes for Cubs, supported those transitioning to Scouts, and participated in numerous joint adventures such as the Hesley Wood Fun Camp and a visit to the Astrocampus at the University of York.
The Adder Troop leadership team delivered a fun and active programme this year, with Scouts achieving the 'Outdoor in 24' badge as well as the World, Skills, and Teamwork Awards. Highlights included mud-filled adventures at Junior Warrior, outdoor pursuits like e- karting, ice skating, crate stacking, trampolining, and water activities.
Viper Troop has had an exciting year filled with diverse activities and achievements. They worked towards the
Annual Report & Accounts 6

Skills Challenge Award with quiz and sports nights, a visit to Escape Rooms, Halloween and Guy Fawkes themed evenings, astronomy, and sledging at Xscape. During spring, they earned the World Challenge Award by exploring topics like gender and disability, local history, financial literacy, and water safety with the RNLI.
Neil Underwood
Group Lead Volunteer
14th Selby (St Francis Thorpe Willoughby)
It’s been another fantastic and full year for Thorpe Willoughby Scout Group, with each of our sections— from Squirrels through to Scouts—delivering exciting, meaningful, and adventurous programmes that reflect the very best of what Scouting can offer.
Across the group, I want to start by thanking our team of incredible volunteers. Their dedication, creativity, and care have made every event, badge, and meeting night possible. The effort that goes in behind the scenes is immense, and it doesn't go unnoticed—thank you.
Scouts
The Scouts have had a brilliant year of activities and progression. Highlights include a week-long easter camp to Great Tower, a night out for an astronomy quiz and curry evening, and work towards the Yorkshire Challenge Award, which is being run across Central Yorkshire Scouts. The section continues to grow in confidence and independence, with young people taking on new challenges and working together as a team.
Cubs
The Cub Pack has had a varied and active year, with bell boating adventures, the Frosties activity day, and a fun sleepover in the village hall. Their programme has mixed outdoor activities with teamwork and personal development—and plenty of fun along the way.
Beavers
Our Beavers also took part in the Frosties event and enjoyed their own indoor sleepover experience in the village hall. Their programme this year has included a strong mix of active, hands-on sessions that keep them busy and engaged.
Squirrels
The youngest members of our group, the Squirrels, have had a wonderful year of discovery and energy. From local hikes to crafts and toasting marshmallows, their programme has been full of variety and fun—laying strong foundations for their journey through Scouting.
Group Events and Changes
We’ve had some brilliant group-wide activities, including a Christmas trip to Oxygen trampoline park in York and a successful group camp last year. Planning is already well underway for this year’s camp, which we’re all looking forward to.
Like many groups, we’ve seen some changes in leadership. We’ve said thank you and farewell to Paula, Denise, and Eileen as they step down and retire from Scouting. We’re hugely grateful for everything they’ve done over the years. At the same time, we’ve

In closing, I’d like to thank all our volunteers, young people, parents, and supporters for being part of Thorpe Willoughby Scout Group. Together, we continue to build a group we can all be proud of.
Here’s to another great year ahead.

Risk & internal control
The trustees discuss the risks and opportunities of all proposed activity on an ongoing basis. It is a priority of the trustee board to review, and create systems to mitigate, risks over the coming year. Known areas of concern that have been identified are:
-
Reduced income from fund raising. The District is primarily reliant upon income from members in constituent Groups and Units. The District holds a balance of funds to ensure the continuity of activities should there be a major reduction in income. The District continue to look to external organisations to help fund large scale projects.
-
The District owns Olympia HQ and the lease to Tamarak Campsite. Like all assets, they requrire ongoing investment and upkeep. Both assets would benefit from long term development plans to ensure the charity maximises their potential.
-
The District has in place systems of internal controls that are designed to provide reasonable assurance against material mismanagement or loss, these include 2 signatories for all payments and comprehensive insurance policies to ensure that insurable risks are covered.
