The Board could raise the value of subscriptions to increase the income to the group on an ongoing basis, either temporarily or permanently. Reduction or loss of leaders. The group is totally reliant upon volunteers to run and administer the activities of the group. If there was a reduction in the number of leaders to an unacceptable level in a particular section or the group as a 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 Group. 

Reduction or loss of members. The Group provides activities for all young people aged 4 to 18. If there was a reduction in membership in a particular section or the group 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 Group. 

The group 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 a comprehensive insurance policies with Unity Insurance Services to ensure that insurable risks are covered.

|**Section E**|**Financial Review**|
|Brief statement of the charity’s policy on<br>reserves|**Reserves Policy**<br>The Group's policy on reserves is to hold sufficient resources to<br>continue the charitable activities of the group should income and<br>fundraising activities fall short. The Group Trustee Board<br>considers that the group should hold a sum equivalent to 12<br>months running costs, circa £15,000.|



4  LT700001 (27 February 2024) 



The Group held reserves of approximately £13,000 against this at year end. This is below the ideal amount required for operating expenses. However this can be explained since the Board of Trustees approved the purchase of paddle boards and bouyancy aids, to increase the frequency that the Scout Group is able to offer water activities to our young people. (District do not own any paddle boards, which is what 3 of our adult volunteers have permits for. District also only have 3 canoes, which is not enough for the numbers in our Group. They do have a few kayaks, but we do not have instructors for that and again, not enough for the numbers we'd need on the water. Paddleboards are suitable for all age Groups, enabling our Squirrels and Beavers to gain water confidence and then build on those skills with our Cubs, Scouts and Explorers. It should be noted that the District owned bouyancy aids are not of a size to fit the younger age groups and are quite old, which is why for safety reasons it was felt beneficial to invest in our own). These purchases are long term investments and mean that we won't need to bring in expensive external providers on a regular basis any more. Research has also indicated that paddleboards hold their value if looked after.

Further financial review details (optional information) 

You **may choose** to include additional information, where relevant, about: 

The Group's primary source of income is the montly subscription payments received by youth members of the Scout Group.  The subs are paid by direct debit on the first of each month via OSM and GoCardless and can be easily monitored by the GSL, Treasurer and Section Leaders.  The Trustees regularly review the amount of the subs and they are currently set at £11.95 a month and have been since 1st October 2021.  During our March 2024 meeting, all Trustees voted to increase our subs to £15.00 a month with effect from 1st September 2024.  This increase is to help cover the increase in our costs, such as the increased Scouts Headquarters membership fees, increased running costs and an increase to the percentage of all payments received by OSM and GoCardless.  The Scout Group has a hardship policy to support any youth members who are unable to pay, but this is only taken advantage of by a very small percentage of our members.  Our Treasurer claims Gift Aid on an annual basis and all members are actively encouraged to sign up to this via OSM. The Group is pro-active in seeking grants and arranging fundraising when high value items are required, such as the grant that was secured in the previous financial year to cover the cost of a fixed projector and screen. In November 2023 the Scouts took part in a carboard box sleepout (our own Scouting Event) which raised £2,155 through JustGiving for the St John's Hospice at Moggerhanger, allowing them to claim gift aid on this donation of £450. The group receives 15% rebate from the Scout Shop for uniform purchased by Putnoe members and agreed to ringfence this money to support young people and adult volunteers attending the World Scout Jamboree - the next one is in Poland in 2027 and contingents are expected to be selected in the next 12 months.  We have also recently set up a small Fundraising Committee, which will start to work on fundraising initiatives to supplement our finances.

|• investment policy and objectives;<br>• how expenditure has supported the key<br>objectives of the charity;|<br> <br>The Trustee Board regularly monitors the levels of bank<br>balances and all large expenditure items require the permission<br>of the Executive Committee and the policy of dual signatures is<br>strictly adherred to.
