SD Scouts Gordano Scout District ANNUAL REPORT 2024 4th July 2024 Glenny Lodge

District Lead Volunteers. Report As previously, we have included as many indrvidual reports from Groups and Sertions as leaders have been able to provide and they speak forthemsefves in terms of the range and variety of artivities leaders across the District have been able to provide. All leaders would doubtless also want tojoin us in paying tribute to the sm311 army of Trustees and helpers who also work. often behind the scenes. to support and help make Scouting the fun, challenging and indeed 'life affirminl activity it Undoubted￿ is. Our thanks and those of Gordano District Tru5tee5 go out to them all. District Numbers Overall numbers in the '24 census.. Youth.. 1219: Adutt 343.. Network 23.. show a slight drop of youth numberson the previou5 year but having been surprised by this it seems likely that the discrepancv is likely to the census date becoming more flexible and new BeaveTS joining soon after numbers were submitted. As most previous reports have noted, the existence of sizeable waiting lists across the District underlines what we all know.. if we can recruit more leaders we can offer this great opportunity to many more youngsters. Transformation Members of Council might rememberthat last yearfs meeting had a valedirtory note from Steve and Tony. reaching the end of their official District Commissioner tenures. However a5 the process of Transformation got under way in Gordano District. CINe Madders from 2PH in particular, has continued to support groups with the ch3nBes required. Steve has put a lot of time and effort in working to ensure that as a District we have high rates of compliance wf(h Safeguarding training and in particular Safety training which has rightly become a very high priority since the sad death of an Explorer Scout on The Great Orme and the resulting coroners report.lt is fair to say that much has been achieved but delays to new computer systems means that dates'to go live, from HQ have consistentty been moved back and its not yet completely clear when indeed we will have been transformed. Despite the sceptieal note, all groups have made good progTess updating relevant data and assimilating old roles into new.The prominent word'volunteerf in title5 is a small but significant step forward and helps allay some confusion that still exists. We have been successful in recrurtinE a Distrirt Lead Volunteer team to th￿e of the four strands of responsibilrty and ovrthank5 to them agreeing to work as part of this new team. Our District Lead Volunteer looks as follows= Volunteer Experience: Sean Davin (Long Ashton) Programme.. Simon Kelty12nd Clevedonl 14- 24- Nicole jelli5 Ilst Nai15eal Support- Vacant

Steve and Tony will continue to support with reduced commitments particularfy in the areas of compliance, training and awards. An immediate need is to increase those sufficiently experienced colleagues who might be accredited for issuing eg Nights away permits. Ten Tors 2024 - r(s 61st year Always a highlight of the older Scouts, calendar. Once again we combined with Axe District to give over a hundred youngsters the chance to take part in this event. Many thanks to the many leaders who prepare the scouts each year. World Scout Jamboree 2023 This time last year we enjoyed meetingthe fouryoungstersfrom Gordano already to jet off. We are all aware of the difficU￿leS that followed but it was heartening to find from one of the Avon Contingent leaders that our youngsters conducted theMSe￿e$ with resilence and goo humour. Glennywood The'jewel in The Crown,. See Phil's report foran update on all the things that have been undertaken by the volunteer team, resuking in significantty increased visits. Explorers Thls has been a year of rather mixed fortunes for Gordano Explorers. Our thanks to George Wormald-Kellywho had to stepdown from leading Salthouse Explrers at Easter. Many thanks to him for the time and effort put in over the years We have not been successful in recruiting a new leader yet but. Manyof the Salthouse youngsters have been able to join in actwities at Kilkenny resulting in bumper numbers which hasn't affected the great programme the leaders are running. Melons ESU will also soon be looking for a new leaders as Robin Macintosh rationalises hi5 5COUt commitment5 and discussions are underway with the other Nailsea Unit, Horizon, to give the youngsters a chance to carry on with Explorers. Backwell's unit, Barracudas also has very healthy numbers and a strong programme. As a District Unrts, our thank5 go to the many Explorer Leaders. And Last It was sad to hear of the death of Vickie Farrall for many years a leader at Long Ashton and Distritt Secretary. She would have been delighted to attend this yearfs Long Ashton AG M held at the site of the new HQ last month. A lovely occasion. All good wishes to the new District Te3m who will be in contact with their plans for strengthening and supporting our leaders. Steve Hamey Tony Tween District Lead Volunteers

Of these, IEA)were visits, mainly in the evening, wrth 4455 people attending, young and older plus 49 camps were held at Glenny Wood wf(h 1282 people on site. So, year on year overall The increase in site usage is signrficant wtth 34 more visrts and 711 extra people on site.

Camps were up by Iwf(h 40M0￿ ￿Mper$ yearon year. Safety- So with the level of usage, we need to maintain a significant focus on safety to reduce risk, not negate, where we can. Woodlands- To manage the site and keep r( safe is a challenge, especially in such a woodland environment. We have again employed an Arboriculture specialist to undertake the annual tree inspection. Following a review of the recommendation5, planning permission was then obtained, and the work completed. Most of this felling works is due to Ash Dieback. Annual Safety Checks- We have several annual checks undertaken by professional people in addition to the Trees. these include Water testing for Bacteria and Legionella. all neEatwe. Fire Extinguishers, Trattors servicing an(1 check5, Site heating boiler as well as electrical PAT testing. Weekly safety checks- We have a programme of our own si(e checks which cover the whole site, including Woodlands, Lodge. Loos. Activities and equipment. Any issues identrfied are quick re501ved. The electric5 have been checked and improved, with Some rewiring, switching to LED lighting and significant improvement to the lights outdoors for the paths and around the buildings.

Srte Improvement- As in previous years many hundreds of maintenance tasks have been undertaken during 2023. In addition. we look to improve our site. This year this has include, NewArtivities- Radioactive Logs. Sheep Penning. Darts and Table Tennis have been added. Wetlands area has been revamped wf(h greater aC￿sS on paths to the pond for pond dipping and our first bug hotel is in srtu. The Wetlands Bridge has been ￿b￿lIt. The Karts track has been signrficantly changed antl easierto use. Thanks to 2nd Portishead scouts for their help with this. We have also started on a major project to create a round Glenny Boundary trail, which will include interactive boards. First part is due to be opened in ju￿ 2024. Phil Woolcock Volunteer Chair Glenny Wood District Camp Srce

2nd Portishead Scout Group A suc￿Ssful yearwf(h 6full sections, 2 at each age group, and a long waiting list once again showing that Stouting remains popular. We had lots of chief scout awards achieved in 2023 7 Bronze, 17 silver and 4 Gold with loads more due in 2024. We had much success recruiting new volunteers in 2023 to keep the 2 beaver sections open. Some leaders are moving up with tharown children to cubs and scouts this year so ongoing recruitment is now the norm as new children start. We continue our search for a new Chair of our Trustee Board as have had no interest to date. On a Group level one of our Trustees took on the challenge and successfully applied for grants totalling £32,000 for a new minibus as the old one was beyond repair. We have lots of bookings from other scout groups as well as the wider Portishead community. Our hall is also now available for hire at a very reasonable £10 per hour. (Shameless plug) and we are looking to install sound attenuation similar to ist Nailsea to reduce sound levels in the main hall. We already have £1500 Grant towards this. Caroline Hill Group Lead Volunteer 2nd Portishead Scout Group

2nd Clevedon- GLV'S Report 2023-24 has been a year of consolidation for 2nd Clevedon. The Group now benefits from a full leadershipteam for all three sectionsas well as a full board of tnjstees. Having thriving leadership is helping us to Slow￿ ￿duce our waiting lists for all three sections. Land Yeo Beaver Colony ha5 been able to offer an imaginative and challenging programme of outdoor and indoor artThif(ies as well as visits to Coast Guard, RNU and emergency seNices. Lion Cub Pack continues togrow with 26 members who have enjoyed a programme of outdoor skills and activities at Glenny Wood as well as visits to Laser Tag and many other activities. The leadership team have been able to provide a varied programme, and are working towards gaining nights aw3v permits to take the pack camping. Aztec Scout Troop is beginning to grow again, although the age profile of the Troop 15 Still quite young because of the after effects of the pandemic. As well as a busy and adventurous programme includin8 kayakin8. night hikes, geocaching and beach barbeques, the Troop enjoyed a weekend camp at Glennywood. Aftermissing a summer tamp last yearthe Troop will be tamping this year at Buddens in Dorset. Congratulations go to our four Scouts who all successfully completed the Ten Tors 35 mile challenge this Mav. We were sorry to lose our very successful Sakhouse ESU this year due to leaders having to leave because of work and famity commitments, but we hope that we can recruit a new Explorer lead volunteer and team to fulFil this important provision in Clevedon We welcomed Lizzie WoTmald-Kelly as our new Chair to the Board of Trustees this year and thank them for theircontinuing 5UPPOrt, fundraisingand commttmentto the Group as we get to grips with the changes that transformation bring.

Simon Kelty- Group Lead Volunteer 2nd Clevedon

1st Nailsea ReF)0rt 2024 The Beavers, Cubs and kouts have been able to enjoy a full programme of events during the year, and have come together for a group carol service (complete with the growing Scout and guide Bandl and an expanded Remembrance Parade in November As usual in July. we were delighted that Nailsea Carnival was again a great 5ucce5s, bringing a sense of community and putting smiles on lots of faces, whilst also providing a helpful opportunity to raise funds for the Group. In addition to organising Nai15ea Carnival. our excellent team of fundraising volunteer5, Friends of 1st Nailsea, have also continued to run several clothing collections via Bogs2School to bring in much-needed funds. As ever, the Trustees are immensely grateful for their support, as well as to all of the people who made donation5. We were also very pleased to support the Santa float around Nailsea this Year which is always a highlight the festive season, and have had a stall at several monthly Nailsea Farmers markets to show presence in the community and work on recruitment Sections Beovers The two 8eaver colonies continued to run at full capacity all year, with a varied and exciting programme. This year Beavers have been learning about potatoes. fair trade, endangered animals and Poland to name but a few topics. They have been tobogganing, pond dipping and have a visit from some exotic creatures including snakes and bearded dragonsl Four of our long serving beaver leaders are looking to finish in the Summer of 2024 50 we have been recruiting and training 4 new leaders to take over the reigns in late 2024 Sleepovers were held twice during the year to start the beavers getting used to staying away from home ready for future camps when they move to cubs. The halloween one was particularly muddy and included a walk through a field with some inquisitive cows As we aim to do every year all those who moved up to Cubs during the year also achieved their Chief 5couV5 Bronze Award. Cubs Our three Cub packs continue to run a little under full capacity as we still only have 2 Beaver Colonies but a few new direct entries have helped keep nUmI￿r$ a little higher. The Cubs have been very busy again c(M)king, gardening , learning circus skills. learning about the parts of the human body. trying new foods, making bath bombs, perfected theri first aid skills and camp skills

They have visited an escape room (followed by setting up their own version at the scout HQ) gone to the Weston Pantomime, tried canoeing and climbing. gone bowling and had fun at our local campsite Glennywood doing backwards cooking and fire lighting Concorde and Compass Cubs went on their annual camp at Huish Camp Site, with a vi51t to the Fleet Air arm museum as part of the camp. Jack Warry held a camp at Butchers Coppice near Poole which included a day trip to Brownsea Island Ithe home of the 1st scout camp 11 Unfortunately Baggy is retiring in September so we are also busy recruiting and training new Cub leaders of rconcorde adn Compass Packs. She will be greatly missed and big shoes to fill Most Cubs again managed to achieve their Chief Scout 5 Silver Award and Gordano Chollenge awards. Scouts Our Scout Troops have been running full to capacity during the year which is great and continue to run a full and varied programme. The Scouts have been making good use of our new Climbing wall, learning new practical skills in car and bike maintenance and cooking. Visits include to a Bristol Mosque, Laserquest and the Bristol Royal Infirmary. Finally mountain biking and Caving are a couple of new skills they have tried out over the year. oth Troops ran successful camps in the summer, with Raptor Troop camping In Devon (although they had very challenging weather conditions leading to a last minute move from tents into a local farmers barn due to high winds!) and Tomahawk Troop travelling to 8iblins Camp Site on the river Wye again with 2nd Nailsea kouts for a joint camp Both troops managed to get several older scouts through their Chief Scout's Gold Aword last year culminating in their expedition la two-day hike. with a night under canvas without a leader presentl. Bond The Scout and Guide band 15 going from strength to strength this year with several new members and the occasional bolster from some slightly rusty musical leaders. Performances included the carnival in June and the Christmas Carol Service. All the practice paid off in November when the first marching performance took place leading the remembrance parade. Many compliments were heard and it is great to have a marchinE band again. Their most recent event was supporting the D DAY 80 yrs celebration in Long Ashton with laying of the Drum5 ceremony Nicole Jellis GLV

Long Ashton Report 2024 Overall, the Long Ashton Group Successful￿ rèn and maintained 6 Stouting sertions within the Group.. 2 Beaver Colonies, 2 Cub Packs, 2 Scout Troops, during which we.. SuccessfLJlly took on new Scout members, progressed existing members through ScoLJting, and released older Scouts into further 5coutin& all the while adhering to the value5 of Scouting throughout. Enjoyed mixtures of indoorand outdoor activtties atr05s all Settions, as well as commun(ty support work and growth of individual skill and knowledge in age appropriate ways. including coast steeringi scuba diving, camps, cooking and lots of pioneering - Trained new leaders and encouraged the continual development of existing leaders Supported the local community with outreach actNlties for the good of the village, with significant input and visibility for local event support and community cleanup adivities. For numbers we have approximately 130 members, and a waiting list of 110. The challenge to our waiting list 15 getting sufficient volunteers to help us with rat105 and growth of Sections As a Group we are progres5in8 our new HQ planning well. We own the land, have erected borders and land entrances, installed eleetTiCity and water to the site. We are awaiting final planning permissions and council road safety works before initiating build. As part of this, installing green waste water processing and selecting a project manager are the next actNities, along wtth establishing future revenue lines to undertake the buikl. We are experiencin8 a downturn in the number of leaders and operational volunteers and are havlng difficulty establishing a leader refresh pipeline at the moment. Some of this appears to be, anecdotally. that the increased focus on compliance is starting to turn away some potential helpers. Sean Davin GVL

Providingthe community with valuable youth opportunities. adventures and lrfe skills. We will be celebrating with a fun day later in the year. And a leaders and ex members meal. Numbers and facts At the start of 2023 our census numbers were 157YP attending across 811 our 7 Sertion5 (including our partner Explorer unit MELONSI- Thi5 has dropped slightly and our Current membership numbers are at 137 YP when recorded for the February Censu$ 2024.

Sorry no breakdown on these.

There will be a 50TH Anniversary Cub camp this year 15 at PGL with 31 attending. Scouts Gold Expedition Dartmoorevent last October WTth another this coming September. Thi5 15 an opportunity for the older scouts to see rfthey want to take part in the TEN TORS event.

We have had a strong and successful Ten Tors Training team for a very long time With another full team finishing thisjust last month There will be no big camps this year as we are low on adult resources across all sections. Leading to RECRUITMENT Our weak point at the moment is recruiting and appointing new Team members within the Adult LeaderTeam5. without adu￿5 stepping fonvard to support the Group and tojoin the Leadership Teams, this will have a knock-on effect across the Section5 and the actwities we are able to offer. WE ALL work alongside an amazin8Team of Volunteers, who Bive up theirtime to ensure we offer the best possible experiences in Scouting. PERSONALY SOME OF MY CLOSEST FRIENDS AND EVEN MYWIFE HAVE COME FROM MY35 YEARS INVOLVED IN ADULTSCOUTING l Also I have experienced adventures and actNitie5 that I would have never had the opportunity to do without scouting We will however, continue to struggle unless more adults step forward to help. With the Scout Association Transformation work that 15 CU￿entty taking place it will make volunteering easier, and we hope more advlrs will join us. You will have noticed the cracks not as many off-sf(e artivities, programme plans not being sent out in a timely way and delays in 8ettin8 badges ordered. Sections meetings getting changed or cancelled at short notice To bring the Leadership Teams up to full numbers a minimum of 10 more Volunteers are needed. Could you be one of these? Please speak with your Leaders or let me know how you can help. THANKS I need to thank all the Sertion volunteersfor keepingthe programme exeitingand fun for the YP. It's no mean feat wf(h the admin behind the scenes as well. The trustees for providing SUPPOrt and govemance to the group, our financial security and also guiding the group forwards. Thank you to the 5rnall team that keep the building up to date and maintained to such a high standard. We are very lucky to have such a brilliant btjilding and grounds. Thank you to the Mayfair Committee and Christmas post team ITonil for the valuable fundraising. Our brilliant group and team made us stand out to the Pride of Bristol ex minesweeper that used to be based in the docks, they donated a few thousand pound5 to us when they closed their charity. And I need to thank ANN, for supporting all the leaders and especialty me on myjourney with 2nd Nailsea Scouts

ANN Ann has been involved at 2nd Nailsea for 27years. From starting as parent and becoming a leader then on to GSLfor more than 20year5 Ann has decided step down from her Role and hand overto someone else. ANN has enjoyed all of hertime overthose years and worked alongside some trufy lovely people who have taught her lots of skills as she has to others. This group and the sections would not be how it is today without the time and dedication given by ANN ANN won't get off that lightfy thoughl In-between her holiday5 With Steve She we Still be involved behind the scenes, a few trips or Camps to organisel And supporting with training and leader administration and important guidance Finally thank you all for comingl And if you can Please step forward to help. you will make a drfferen￿. My take home message tonight is simple.. "please make a drfference and volunteer with us" Robln Maclntosh GLV Horizon Explorers Report (Heather Clark.
