## **Objectives and Activities** 

## Purpose 

Scouting exists to actively engage and support young people in their personal development, empowering them to make a positive contribution to society. 

## Values 

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 co-operate with others and make friends. 

## 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; and 

- Make and live by their promise 

The Charity Trustees have a duty to report on their public benefit in their Annual Report. We have assessed our aims, activities, and charitable objectives which are: 

“Scouting exists to actively engage and support young people in their personal development empowering them to make a positive contribution to society.” 

We believe we have met the Charity Commission’s public benefit criteria for both the advancement of education and the advancement of citizenship or community development.

## **Trustees Report** 

The members of the Trustee Board of Biggleswade District Scout Council present their report and Financial Statements for the year ended 31st December 2024. The financial statements have been prepared on a payments and receipts basis and comply with the charity’s governing document and the Charities Act 2011. 

## Governance 

The Charity’s governing document is the Royal Charter granted by King George V to the “Boy Scouts Association” on 16 December 1911. Its name has since been changed to the “Scout Association”. 

This Charter has been supplemented by further Charters granted by King George VI and Queen Elizabeth II. These Charters give authority to the Bye Laws of the Association, which are approved by His Majesty’s Privy Council. The Bye Laws, in turn, authorise the making of rules for the regulation of the Association’s affairs and thereby give authority for the Rules known as “Policy, Organisation and Rules” which are located at www.scouts.org.uk/por. 

The Biggleswade District Scout Council was first registered as a Charity in 1966. 

The Charity is aware of the Code of Governance for the Voluntary and Community Sector and its six key principles and will continue to critically review its approach to governance and assess how effective it is against these principles in 2025. 

## Structure 

This report and accounts cover the activities directly controlled by Biggleswade District Scout Council which is an autonomous organisation admitting people to membership subject to the Policy, Organisation and Rules of The Scout Association. The activities of the Scout Groups in Biggleswade are not reflected in the report and accounts. These bodies are autonomous charities affiliated to Biggleswade District Scout Council that together form Scouting in the area of operation of the District. 

Biggleswade District Scouts were led by Tracey Murrell, the District Lead Volunteer, and managed by a Trustee Board. They are accountable to the Biggleswade District Scout Council for the satisfactory running of Scouting in the District. 

## Management 

The management of the business of the District Scout Council is vested in the District Trustee Board. The Trustees Board was appointed in accordance with Policy, Organisation, and Rules of the Scout Association. The District Trustee Board met four times during the year to manage the affairs of the Charity. The Trustees will continue to meet regularly in 2025. 



The District Trustee Board is responsible for policy making but delegates some operational decisions to its operational sub teams, such as the campsite management team. Teams may also recommend policies for the consideration of the District Trustee Board. The District Lead Volunteer is responsible for appointing Team Leaders to manage the operational teams within the District and ensure their effective & complaint operation. 

The District Trustee board also delegates some of its responsibilities, within an agreed terms of reference to the finance sub-committee of the board comprising of members of the trustee board, the Treasurer and the District Chair. The District Chair also Chairs the finance sub-committee meetings. 

Operational teams & sub committees of the trustee board within the District conduct their activities with a budget and, where applicable, agreed terms of reference set by the trustee board to allow for quick decisions where necessary without added bureaucracy. 

## Organisation 

The District is led by the District Lead Volunteer and supported by: 

- The District Trustee Board 

- The District Leadership Team 

- Group Lead Volunteers 

- Other Key Sub-Teams appointed in line with POR 

## Appointment of Trustees 

Trustees are appointed in accordance with the “Policy, Organisation & Rules” of The Scout Association. 

Trustees and newly appointed Trustees are invited to attend HQ Trustee Training via the Adult Management System and completion is monitored by the District Lead Volunteer (or delegate) and/or District Chair. 

## Risk Management 

The Trustees have a risk management strategy which includes: 

- a requirement to produce a risk assessment for all District events and activities; 

- an annual review of the risks the Charity may face; 

- the establishment of systems and procedures to mitigate those risks identified in the annual review and for all District events and activities; and 

- the implementation of procedures designed to minimise any potential impact on the Charity should those risks materialise. 

- A requirement for non-Scouting organisations using Boyd Scout Campsite & Activity Centre to produce appropriate Risk Assessments for their event. 



Risk assessments have been completed for all activities and facilities at the Activity Centre and are available on the website. These are reviewed regularly. When unacceptable risks are identified actions are taken on an on-going basis to mitigate them. 

A key element in the management of financial risk is the regular review of the adequacy of insurance coverage and investment and reserves policies by the trustees. 

## Reserves Policy 

The policy has been established to protect the Charity and its charitable programme by providing time to adjust to changing financial circumstances. It also provides parameters for future budgeting and strategic plans and contributes towards decision making. 

The Charity’s reserves policy establishes an appropriate target range for the level of general reserves. The range is based on a risk assessment of the probability and likely impact on the Charity’s activities that might be caused by a decline in income, an inability to meet financial obligations, or an inability to reduce expenditure in the immediate short term. The policy ensures a balance between spending the maximum amount of income raised as soon as possible after receipt, while maintaining the appropriate level of reserves to ensure uninterrupted operation. The policy and target range will be reviewed annually to reassess the risks and reflect changes in the Charity’s income, financial obligations and expenditure. The charity’s reserves policy is to hold reserves approximately equivalent to 6 months’ expenditure. 

In addition, the Charity manages a hardship fund to support Groups and individuals in need throughout the District. The Trustees have plans to invest the surplus reserves into improvements at the District Campsite. 

## Investment Policy 

Due to the relatively low level of funds, the District’s policy is to hold funds in standard bank accounts with FSCS protection at balances less than £85,000. 

The surplus income of the District is not sufficiently high for the trustees to consider long term investment however, a standard saver account has been opened to begin setting funds aside for the ‘Bigg Build’ project. 



## **Achievements and Performance** 

- As a District we have continued to grow expanding our numbers of young people, with large waiting lists that is dependent on us recruiting more adult volunteers 

- We have implemented the new teams way of working to mee the new structure set by the Scout Association 

- Embraced the new digital tools system despite some setbacks 

- The District campsite goes from strength to strength and had the highest income last year 

- We invested in the campsite by creating a new permanent archery and tomahawk range and some other key safety improvements to the lakes. 



## **Financial Review** 

## Statement of Financial Activities 

The overall result for the year was a surplus of £35,517. 

This was primarily driven by a significant increase in income from Boyd Scout Campsite & Activity Centre, much of which was offset by expenditure on ongoing improvement works, in particular developing activity provision and maintenance. 

## Renumeration of Trustees 

All Trustees act in a voluntary capacity and receive no remuneration or other material benefits from their services to the Charity. 

Out-of-pocket expenses necessarily and reasonably incurred by Trustees in promoting the purposes of the Charity are reimbursed at cost. 

The Trustees are responsible for keeping accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and which enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011. 

They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
