Section B - Structure, governance and management

Description of the charity’s trusts

Type of governing document - The District's governing documents are those of The Scout Association. They consist of a Royal Charter, which in turn gives authority to the Bye Laws of the Association and The Policy, Organisation and Rules of The Scout Association.

How the charity is constituted - The District is a trust established under its rules which are common to all Scouts.

Trustee selection methods - The Trustees are appointed in accordance with the Policy, Organisation and Rules of The Scout Association.

Additional governance issues

Page 2

The District has adopted the constitution set out in POR and is managed by the District Trustee Board, the members of which are the ‘Charity Trustees’ of the Scout District which is an educational charity. As charity trustees they are responsible for complying with legislation applicable to charities. This includes the registration, keeping proper accounts and making returns to the Charity Commission as appropriate.

This District Trustee Board exists to support the District Lead Volunteer in meeting the responsibilities of the appointments and is responsible for:

• The maintenance of District property;

• The raising of funds and the administration of District finance;

• The insurance of persons, property and equipment;

• District public occasions;

• Assisting in the recruitment of leaders and other adult support;

• Appointing any sub committees that may be required;

• Appointing District Administrators and Advisors other than those who are elected.

The Trustee Board consists of 2 independent representatives, the Chair and Treasurer, together with the District Lead Volunteer and Youth Lead Volunteer and other elected and coopted members.

The Trustee Board meets every 2-3 months

Members of the Trustee Board complete training within the first 5 months of joining the board on the following: Being a Trustee in Scouts, Who We Are and What We Do, Creating Inclusion, Safety Training, and Safeguarding Training.

Risk and Internal Control

The District Trustee Board has identified the major risks to which they believe the District is exposed, these have been reviewed and systems have been established to mitigate them. The main areas of concern that have been identified are:

• Damage to the building, property and equipment. The District has sufficient buildings and contents insurance in place to mitigate against total loss.

• Injury to leaders, helpers, supporters and members. The District through the membership fees contributes to the Scout Association’s national accident insurance policy. Risk Assessments are undertaken before all activities.

• Reduced income from site hire, camp fees and fundraising. The District is primarily reliant upon income from the hire of Christchurch Scout Centre (CSC), camping and activity fees from the Braggers Wood Camping and Activity Centre and fundraising at local events. The District does hold a reserve to ensure the continuity of activities should there be a major reduction in income. The Trustee Board could raise the value of local membership to increase the income to the District, either temporarily or permanently.

• Reduction or loss of scouters. The District is totally reliant on volunteers to run and administer the activities of the District . If there was a reduction in the number of scouters to an unacceptable level in a particular section or the District as a whole then

Page 3

there would have to be a contraction, consolidation or closure of a unit/area. In the worst case scenario the complete closure of the District.

• Reduction or loss of members. The District provides activities for all young people aged 4 to 25. If there was a reduction in membership in a particular section or the District as whole then there would have to be a contraction, consolidation or closure of a section. In the worst case scenario the complete closure of the District.

The District has in place systems of internal controls that are designed to provide reasonable assurance against material mismanagement or loss, including 2 signatories for all payments.

Section C - Objectives and activities

Summary of the objectives of the charity set out in its governing document:

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 cooperate 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.

Summary of the main activities in relation to these objectives:

113 explorer scouts are actively engaged in scouting activities.

Page 4

The District runs a wide variety of events for the benefit of all young people aged 4-14 years who primarily belong to Groups within the District.

The District also supports scouting activities by running the Braggers Wood Activity and Camping Centre, the Christchurch District Scout and Guide Band, the Christchurch District Scout and Guide Gang Show, the Scout Active Support and the Christchurch Scout Centre.

Public benefit statement - The Group meets the Charity Commission's public benefit criteria under both the advancement of education and the advancement of citizenship or community development headings.

Section D - Achievements and Performance

Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year:

The 14-24 Team offers an active scouting programme to 14 to 17-year-olds and also encourages them to train for their Chief Scout Awards and Duke of Edinburgh Awards, and to become young leaders. Our four Explorer Units have all run regular meetings over the past year, with varied programmes which are youth-led, giving our Young People continued benefit from Scouting and learning skills for life. Our Explorer Young leaders have continued to be involved in leadership training and being involved within Group sections across the District.

The Network Unit is for young adults aged between 18 and 25. These are predominately leaders within various sections throughout the District. Network provides them with their own activity programme and support. They held a camp at Braggers Wood and attended the London monopoly run, entering a Saxoni Network team, and some attended the Gilwell Reunion. We hope to increase Network activity further but have not made any significant changes in the past year. The Network members tend to concentrate their scouting within the sections they support rather than in Network alone activities; however we are still trying to help support the growth of the Network and encourage those explorers that turn 18 to become involved with Network. Some Network members are making plans to do their Explorer Belt expedition next year.

Braggers Wood Campsite and Activity Centre provides camping and activities for Scout and Guide groups from across the UK and internationally as well as for our District. Braggers Wood Activity Centre has been open all year and has had a very busy year of bookings for residential, camping and activities. We have continued to run archery, rifle shooting and

Page 5

tomahawk throwing sessions, and introduced new activities, Go Karts and laser tag, during 2025, as well as a programme of improvements to the site and facilities.

The Scout and Guide Gang Show offers opportunities for young people to develop their theatrical and musical skills, and gain confidence. We held a very successful Gang Show at The Regent Centre in February half term of 2025.

The Christchurch Scout and Guide Band offers musical opportunities for our District. It has members from cub age upwards. They held regular weekly meetings at the Christchurch Scout Centre. They took part in our St George’s Day parade in Christchurch, Burton Carnival and the Remembrance Parade at New Milton, and held a Band Camp at Braggers Wood. They have plans to try to grow membership further over the coming year.

District has supported our 8 Groups delivering their varied programmes, and organising District events and competitions. We have continued to improve and ensure very good safety and safeguarding compliance across the District, ensuring a culture of understanding the importance of keeping up-to-date with safety, safeguarding and first response training and implementation. 2025 saw the opening of our 8th, and final, Squirrel Drey in the District; our youth membership of under 18’s across the Groups and District continued at its 2024 level, with a small increase with the additional Squirrel Drey. Adult membership across our Groups and the District overall has increased and we have supported them with this.

We had a very successful international trip to Germany in August 2025, taking 106 Explorers, Scouts and Leaders to Rieneck and Aalen; and planning for our next international trip has started.

Our Duke of Edinburgh / Top Award support team has grown and is progressing well. In 2025 achievements included 5 Bronze Duke of Edinburgh’s Awards, 12 Chief Scout’s Platinum Awards and 2 Young Leader Belts. Further Duke of Edinburgh Expeditions are planned for Summer 2026, including an urban one for some young people unable to complete the rural one for medical reasons.

Continue to rebuild and grow our Network Section. Aim to recruit additional adult volunteers in the District and continue to grow our youth membership, taking into account our number of volunteers, waiting list and Census data.
