## Item 

## Acton 

1. John N welcomed everyone to the meeting. 

   9. AOB – 

2. Apologies – Nick Baines 

3. Minutes of the last AGM were given out.  Proposed by Jenny Bhambri-Lyte and seconded by Anne Baines.  The minutes were accepted as a true and accurate record. 

4. 

a. Treasurer’s Report – began the year at £38,000, finished with £54,000, now have £65,000.  Suggested that it’s moved to investment account.  We will need investment account for Switzerland; can we have two investment accounts?  We need to keep money for February (building insurance, capitation, etc).  So surplus (not allocated to the above and to fire doors – all need to be replaced for wheelchair access, replace softwood frames, £14,000.  Chris to chase more quotes). Boiler and radiators have been replaced.  If we have money left, kitchen will be gutted and redesigned.  Outdoors is current priority.  Eventually, we will need more than one minibus, though anyone who passed test post 1997, they need to take a D1 test to qualify to drive the minibus of this weight.  For Brownsea island, we are hiring 2[nd] Portishead’s lightweight minibus.  There is potential to share minibuses with other groups.  Current minibus is not worth trading in.  Many groups go to Polar.  Chris queried about installing LED lights. 

b. GSL report – quickly back to camps and sleepovers.  Scouts got their twice-delayed summer camp.  Census – 200 young people and 15 young leaders. We are lacking leaders.  We have twelve adult leaders; it is ideal to have three leaders per section as a minimum.  Parents were approached to impress on them the importance of parent helpers.  Cannot say that parents took this seriously in any useful quantity. Growth in young people has not been matched by leaders.  In this area, most young leaders go off to university.  18 leaders is our target.  Arranging more social events for adults would be helpful. 

Chris to finalise fire exits quote. Anne nominated Nick to investigate minibus options. Anne to talk to Alex the electrician about LED installation cost. Anne to email parents for a landscaper. 

Chris to arrange follow-up meeting to be arranged re recruiting leaders, before Christmas. Also Explorers. 

5. Appointment - agreed 

6. Nomination for the chair –Jon Norman.  Nominated by Jenny, seconded by Chris. 

   - a. We need a new treasurer for the end of the financial year. 

   - b. Jenny agreed to continue as secretary. 

   - c. Group executive committee – Joseph, Chris, Anne, Cathy, Paul, John M, John N and Jenny. 

   - d. Chris proposed adoption of accounts, Jacob seconded. 

   - e. Joseph opted in as trustee. 

7. Appointment of auditor – we need to find new auditor by end of financial year.  John M to be auditor for year ending 2024. 

8. District representative – congratulations on a fantastic year.  Biggest and most successful group in district. Thanks to leaders and committee.  Up to 1200 in district, 229[th] never dropped (good online presence during COVID).  Major presence at Fiesta.  Next task for district is to re-establish the section meetings (Pinewood Derby, etc).  No scout ADC. 

Need to find new treasurer by end of financial year. Target of quarterly group executive committee meetings. Need to find new auditor by end of financial year. 



- a. Back area: Joseph has done sketch.  Can be achieved in sections. 

- b. Badge secretary – too complicated 

- c. Job descriptions – all on scouts.org.uk.  In process of changing them. 

- d. John N needs to do the training. 

John N to look in to doing training. Meeting closed at 7.23pm.
