1"/4'" Addlestone
(St.Paul's) Scout group is pleased to report
a successful
and active year. As
I am sure you all remember,
2021 was a
'recovery'
year,
having
previously
been having
mainly
'ZOOM' meetings.
During
this
period
our
numbers
had
dwindled,
however,
with
the|'| |---|---|---|---|---| ||||reintroduction
of face-to-face
meetings
we began
to regain
members,|| ||||having
'lost 'only 9members,
which could be attributed
to normal member|| ||||movement.
This is a testament
to the hard work and commitment
shown|| ||||by all our leaders to engage our members
during those difficult times. On|| ||||restarting
our regular
meetings,
we started
with 96 members.
As the|| ||||Country
returned
to 'normal'
each Section has shown
growth
throughout|| ||||the year, ending the year with 119members.
This trend has continued
to|| ||||increase as we now have 125members.|| ||||All Sections have
maintained
a varied
and
lively programme-and,
ia've';|| ||||when able, included
trips and camps as well as badge work|| ||||In addition
to the Group activities, our Sections have taken part in several|| ||||ofthe District and County events, supplementing
the programme.|| ||||As always,
the Sections
rely on Leaders,
Helpers
and parent
support
to|| ||||make possible the regular weekly meetings,
outings,
events and camps.|| ||||VVe would
like to thank everyone
who has helped
in this way —with the|| ||||number we have,
it is impossible
to single any one person out.|| ||||Our attendance
at all our meetings
and at these
events
would
not be|| ||||possible
without
the support
of the lay members
and
fund raisers. who|| ||||willingly
give up their time to help to maintain
the building
etc,|| ||||The Group constantly
has vacancies for anyone who is willing and able to|| ||||give even an hour oftheir time when they can. Please think about coming|| ||||and joining us —it is rewarding
and fulfilling
but most of all great fun.|| ||||The Group's
policy on reserves
is to hold sufficient resources to continue|| |Brief statement||ofthe charity's|the charitable

considers that thy,-„,|| ||||Group should
