Organisation
The Scout Group is the fundamental functional unit in the Scout Movement where the training programme for young Members of the Movement takes place.
The 79[th] Reading Scout Group is an Open Scout Group, not related to any other organisation and having a policy of unrestricted recruitment. The Group consists of two Beaver Scout Colonies, three Cub Scout Packs and two Scout Troops. It is part of The Pang Valley Scout District within the Royal County of Berkshire.
Management
The Scout Group is an autonomous organisation holding it’s own property and equipment, but subject to the policy and rules contained in The Policy, Organisation and Rules of the Scout Association.
The Scout Group is led by the Group Scout Leader and managed by the Group Executive Committee. They are accountable to the Group Council for the satisfactory running of the Group.
Constitution
The Group Council is an electoral body which supports Scouting in the locality, and membership is open to Scouters, Helpers, Advisors, Parents and Supporters who may be admitted by the Group Scout Leader. The Group Council must hold an Annual General Meeting to:

Chairmans Statement
2020-2021 has been another hard year on the Scout Group we have had to rebuild our membership whilst adapting to the latest covid situation and the requirements laid upon us to manage them. Whilst we have lost people from the group, we are doing a lot better than most and are well above the national average. Still, we have had to close one Beaver colony due to a lack of adults and are still looking for replacements in other sections.
We have taken the opportunity to do some significant maintenance inside and outside the hall with roof works, Drain repairs and the re-laying of some exterior paths. Sadly, we had to say goodbye to the Group minibus which finally became financially unviable due to the amount of work required to keep it road-worthy. Therefore, our top fund-raising priority is to gather the funds together to replace this much valued vehicle.
Finally, I want to say thank you to all the various people who contribute their time and energy keeping the Scout Group running and thriving and here is to a hopefully better 12 months ahead.
Andrew Scott
Chair, 79[th] Reading Scout and Guide Group.

The 79th Reading Scout Group Annual Review 2021
This year has been a real mixed bag with regard to the section meetings. In September 2020 we were still in lockdown with the majority of the sections holding Zoom meetings. In October, some sections returned to small outdoor face to face meetings, adhering to a strict Covid risk assessment, whilst others remained on Zoom. However, it wasn’t for long and in November we were again in a complete lockdown and had to return to Zoom to continue our Scouting activities. This was devastating for leaders who had spent so much time organising and ensuring that their sections would enjoy safe and exciting programmes face to face in the Autumn Term.
However, Zoom activities were always well received and it enabled the young people and leaders to maintain the all important contact so that our Scouting was not forgotten. The activities were many and varied and included cakes in mugs, scavenger hunts, model making, mini golf, road safety, paracord men, taskmaster challenges, science experiments, pancakes, local history and Chinese New Year to name but a few. The young people still managed to achieve their badges through both group and individual efforts.
Although a few young people drifted from the group during these lockdowns, all was not lost. The Beaver colonies joined forces and very successfully recruited and invested 18 new Beavers whilst on Zoom. Many thanks go to the Beaver leaders for running these additional sessions whilst still maintaining their own sections.
Due to the Covid situation, the January 2020 census inevitably showed a reduction in the numbers of young people in the group but the loss was not as large as other groups in the District and we were confident that the numbers would increase once things got back to normal. As of today, we have 209 young people on roll, 31 beavers (6-8 years) on the waiting list and 16 cubs (8-10 years on the waiting list).
Hurrah, in April 2021 we were again allowed to resume outdoor face to face meetings, mainly at the HQ. Good old activities like fires and cooking, pioneering, gardening, hikes and wide games were once again back in the programme. The sections have also been paddle boarding, sailing and grass sledging.
During this time, section numbers increased as we saw the return of those young people who had been unable to participate with the Zoom sessions.
As always, we continue to follow the Covid guidelines and social distancing (as much as is possible!!!)
The new section ‘Squirrels’ for 5-6 years olds is now up and running but we are not currently offering this at 79[th] . We feel it is important to ensure that our existing sections are running smoothly, with appropriate leadership, before venturing into anything else. We still need to find leaders for our Tuesday Beaver colony which,
unfortunately, had to close as the majority of the Leaders did not return after the lockdowns.
If there was one good thing to come out of the lockdowns it was the fact that it enabled many leaders to catch up on their outstanding training, with some finalising their Woodbadges and other completing their Getting Started training as Sectional Assistants. Well done to all of them.
We have maintained a high level of Young Leader support through all sections which, together with our occasional helpers and parents, provide a strong and valuable support team to the warranted leaders.
Again this year especially, our thanks goes out to all dedicated leaders who have planned and led the sections weekly throughout the year. On top of this, they have had to take on the extra requirements of the Covid risk assessment such as cleaning, sanitising and reduced meeting times. These have been exceptional circumstances and without their enthusiasm and determination Scouting could have come to a sticky end. As Group Scout Leaders, we are extremely proud of them and what they have achieved in supporting the young people through these difficult times.
We would also like to thank all the members of the executive team, who do such a lot of work in the background looking after our land, buildings and transport, which still needed attention during the lockdown to ensure that it is up and running for when we return. Thanks go to Andy, Steve, David G, David S, Kate, Chris, Nick and Graham.
Our thanks should also go to the husbands, wives and families of our leaders and Executive Committee who allow us to spend so much time to do our scouting – even if it is only an hour a week!!
We now have our fingers very firmly crossed that we will all be able to continue as normal (whatever that is now) and look forward to another exciting and successful year of Scouting at 79[th] .
Karen & Martin Hobbs Group Scout Leaders
’ – 79[th] Reading Scout Group Group Treasurer s Report to the Annual General Meeting 2021
The following summarises the 2020/2021 financial information attached which the Charity Commission require that we appoint an Independent Examiner to carry out an examination of Helen Longford has agreed to fulfil that role, without charging the Group, so I on behalf of the Group would like to record our appreciation for his work. When his examination has been completed the information will be submitted to the Charity Commission.
Page 11 The Group Executive Expenditure & Income Account for the period 01 April 2020 to 31 March 2021
This shows Income exceeded Expenditure by £19,758.10. This was a year of Covid restrictions, not much expenditure due to the lack of scouting activities and the receiving Government Grants help keep the group finances in credit.
The sections are asked to ensure that as many of the parents as possible, declare that they wish their subscriptions be treated as a gift, enabling the Group to reclaim monies from the Inland Revenue. Only one Gift Aid declaration is required per parent, no matter that they may have more than one child in the Group. The only stipulation from the Inland Revenue is that the parent must pay income tax at least of an annual amount equivalent to the subscriptions paid through the year. Mike Cowling handles the administration of the Gift Aid. As a final note on Gift Aid, those of you who completed the old covenant form, these are still valid and being used by the Group.
Page 13 The Group’s Investment Summary
This details what investments the Group has, the value of them at 31/03/21 being £189,511.65. This year they paid the Group some £2,348.04 in interest, and increasing in value by £31,732.07. The investments are a mixture of government stock (gilts) and unit trusts, these are all related to how well the UK stock market is doing, this past year the stock market has again decreased. Overall, since the original purchases starting in 1995, they have performed reasonably well providing annual payments of interest. The Finance Committee will continue to monitor the investment’s performance and take the appropriate action when required.
Page 12 The Group’s Fixed Assets
This details the current values of our building and our equipment, with the depreciation reflecting the drop in value of our equipment. These do not necessarily mirror the saleable value, or in the case of our building, its insurable value which must reflect the cost of re-building.
This year there is no summary of section accounts and Group’s overall balance sheet for presentation to the AGM. These accounts will still be prepared once all the section’s accounts are collated, the accounts together with the Group’s accounts will form our annual review report which is required to be prepared for the Charity Commission.
In conclusion I would like to thank my fellow finance committee members, Karen Hobbs, Martin Hobbs, Andy Scott, and Nick Gushlow The finance committee have met on a number of occasions, and will be meeting on a reasonably regular basis in the future to monitor the Group’s finances.
Steve Sawyer, Group Treasurer
