Section B
Structure, governance and management Icontinuedl
What risks are posed to the
group, and what controls are in
place to mitigate these?
Rlsk and Intemal Corrtrol
The main areas of concem are:
Damage to the building, property and equipment. The Group
would request the use of buildings, propety and equipment
from neighbouring organisations such as church and
communty buildings. The Group has sufficient buildings and
contents insurance in place to mitigate against pemianent
loss.
Injury to leaders. helpers, supporters and members. The
Group through the capitstion fees contributes to the Scout
Associations national accident insurance policy. Risk
Assessments are undertaken before all activities.
Reduced income from fund raising. The Group is primarily
reliant upon income from subscriptions and fundraising. The
group does hold a reserve to ensure the continurty of
activÉbe5 should there be a major reduction in income. The
Board could raise the value of subscriptions to increase the
income to the group on an ongoing basis, either temporarily
or pemianenty.
Reduction or loss of leaders. The group is totally reliant upon
volunteers to tun and administer the acttvities of the group. If
there was a reduction in the number of leaders to an
unacceptsble level in a parttcular section or the group as a
ole then there would have to be a contraction,
onsolidalion or closure of a section. In the worst case
scenario the complete closure of the Group.
Reduction or loss of members. The Group provides actiVFties
for all young peO￿e aged 4 to 18. If there was a reduction in
membership in a particular section or the group as whole
then there Y￿uld have to be a contra¢tion, consolidation or
dosure of a section. In the worst case scenario the complete
closure of the Group.

Summary of the main achievements of
the charity during the year
Section E
Financial Review
Brief statement of the charity's policy on
reserves
Reserves Policy
The Group's policy on reserves is to hold sufficient resources
to continue the charitable activities of the group should
income and fundraising activities fall short. The Group
Trustee Board considers that the group should hold a sum
equivalent to 6 months running costs for HQ and fixed ¢05ts.
this amounts to £6.000 section cost running reserve, and
£15.000 HQ & Minibus running resep4e.
Quantify and explain any designations
The Group held reseNes of approximately £31,000 against
this at year end. This is above the level required fo
operating expenses. However this can be explained, due to
£7,000 being held to pay capitation fees due to the Scout
Association in January 2025 (annual membership fees), and
circa £25,000 being hdd for the replacement of the group
minibus.
Details of any funds materially in deficii
The Group's Income and Expenditure is very small and as
consequence does not have sufficient funds to invest in
longer-tenn investments such as stocks and shares. The
Group has therefore adopted a low risk strategy to the
investment of its funds. All funds are held in cash using only
mainstream banks or building societies.
Investment Policy
The Group Trustee Board regularly monitors the levels of
bank balances and the interest rates received to ensure the
group obtsins maximum value and income from its banking
arrangements. Occasionalty this may involve using an
account that requires a period of notice before funds may be
wrthdrawn, before doing so the Group Trustee Board
considers the cash flow requirements.
