Summary of the main activities in relation
to these objects|**The Purpose of Scouting**
Scouting exists to actively engage and support young people
in their personal development,
empowering them to make a positive contribution to society.
**The Values of Scouting**
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.
**The Scout 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
- make and live by their Promise.| ||| ||The objectives of Scout are delivered through structured and
planned sessions across the four sections (Squirrels,
Beavers, Cubs, Scouts, Explorers) on a weekly basis through
term time. This regular sessions are supplemented with
additional activites, such as camping events, to provide great
opportunity for the growth of the Young People.

Further financial review details (optional information) |You**may choose**to include additional
information, where relevant, about:
• investment policy and objectives;
• how expenditure has supported the key
objectives of the charity;
• the charity’s principal sources of funds
(including any fundraising);|**Investment Policy**
The Group's Income and Expenditure is very small and as a
consequence does not have sufficient funds to invest in
longer-term 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 or The Scout
Association's Short Term Investment Service.


**Investment Policy**

The Group does not have sufficient funds to invest in longer
term investments. The Group has therefore adopted a risk
averse strategy to the investment of its funds. All funds are
held in cash using only mainstream banks or building
societies.
The Group Trustee Board regularly monitors the levels of
bank balances and the interest rates received to ensure the
group obtains maximum value and income from its banking
arrangements. Occasionally this may involve using an
account that requires a period of notice before funds may be
withdrawn, before doing so the Group Trustee Board
considers the cash flow requirements.| |---|---| ||| |**Section F**|**Other Optional Information**| |Plans for future periods (details of any
