Chairman’s Report
As I reflect on 2024, I’m proud to report that it’s been another fantastic year for the 9[th] North Watford Scout Group as we continue to play our part in the local community. Among the many great things we’ve done in the neighbourhood, attendance at the Remembrance Day service at the Leavesden Memorial continues to be a highlight.
Providing Skills for Life is our aim and we continue to do this to over 120 children every week. With our Squirrel Drey having reached its first birthday during the year, we’re now pleased to have added a second Beaver Colony to the group in September 2024. It’s a measure of our success that we have more than 40 children on our waiting list and we’ll look to add further to the group when the time is right and volunteers permitting.
At last years AGM, I explained in broad terms our plans for a new Scout Hut for the 9[th] . I’m pleased to report that we have made some significant strides in this regard. We have taken advice from Watford Borough Council who are the planning authority and we have obtained agreement from Watford Community Housing from who we lease the land, to proceed with our plans. Recently, we have engaged with a local architect who is assisting us with preparing our planning application which we aim to submit to the planning authority in late summer with the expectation that approval will be granted by the end of this year. This is an ambitious project which will require significant funding. We are putting together a funding strategy and we’d be delighted to speak with anyone who has lived experience of fund raising and/or bid writing.
We are looking to strengthen our board of trustees by adding a young person (between 18 and 25) and a parent/guardian to the board. If you are interested in working to improve and promote the 9[th] North Watford Scout group by becoming a trustee, then please do get in touch with us.
It would be remiss of me to close my report without thanking all of those who have contributed to our success during 2024. I continue to be amazed and inspired by the energy, enthusiasm and motivation of all of those who volunteer with us. I’m reminded that ‘volunteers don’t get paid not because they are worthless but because they are priceless’. A huge thank you from me to you all.

Treasurer’s Report
Like everyone we continually monitor the effect of increases in costs to ensure that our income is sufficient to maintain the HQ and provide Scouting to our community, and as a result, the monthly subscription was increased during 2024 from £14 to £15 in September.
The Group managed to have a modest income excess of £295, not including donations, Gift Aid and savings interest.
Preliminary work has, at last, started for the new Group HQ with a facilitated meeting held in the Spring resulting in the establishment of a Steering Group who met towards the end of the year. It is expected that 2025 will see substantial monies being expended in developing the scheme which will be initially financed from our savings account.
The success of Squirrels has contributed to our income and, if the number of young people in the Group is maintained at the current level, the financial outlook for 2025 is encouraging.
As you are aware, the 9[th] North Watford Scout Group is a registered charity and relies predominantly on monthly subs to support the running of our HQ, which has fixed costs, regardless of the number of young people in the Group.
May I please encourage all who can to register for Gift Aid on Online Scout Manager. Gift Aid is where the Government returns 25% of payments to us at no cost to yourselves.

GLV Report
2024 has been a repeat of 2023, seeing steady growth in the group membership of both young people and adult helpers alike. With our waiting lists increasing all of the time we were able to open a 2[nd] Beaver colony, to provide even more young people a chance to have fun and learn those essential 'Skills for Life'.
You will see from each of the section reports what they have all been up to, from evenings in the scout hall, to exploring our local area, campsites and other venues for activities. Each of the evenings requires planning and execution and then a debrief. We as leaders are also continuing to learn, whether it be updating our first aid, our safeguarding and other training modules, or even how to tweak evenings so that they run better the next time. The times that you as parents and carers of our young people see our leaders and helpers, is only part of the role that we play. It is with this in mind that I wish (as I do every year) to extend my heartfelt thanks to each or our volunteers, no matter their role, for giving up their time for your children and to make the 9[th] North Watford such an amazing place to be and be a member of. Thank you.
As you all know there are people that you do not see every week that ensure the group runs as well as it does. Our dedicated board of trustees. Not only do they ensure we have a building to use and of course the money for our equipment and activities, but they are also working very hard to get a new hut. A modern space that will enable the 9[th] to continue into the future, providing a safe and fun environment for our young people. To the trustees I once again thank you for your continuing support of our leadership teams.
I am looking forward to the next few years, to see how we expand our 'little' scout group and hope that you, our family members, will continue to support us along the way. As always, now more than ever, with the plans for our new scout hall, we need some extra help. We have spaces available in each of our sections for adult helpers, our board of trustees are also recruiting and there are some new roles opening up to help with the building of our new hall. Should you be interested in helping in any way then please feel free to speak or contact me.

Squirrel Report
We had our 1st year party at the 9th North Watford hut and also invited our original Squirrels to reap the rewards of our home-made squirrel cake and games night. We are not far from our 2nd year of having lots of fun, laughter and badges being given.
In the last two terms we have given so many badges including our Chief Scout Acorn award. Our Squirrels like to gain as many badges as they can each week / term. One question I hear most Fridays is: 'Rachel are we doing badges tonight?!!'
After letting our first group of squirrels leave the Drey to go to Beavers, we have gained enough Squirrels to have 24 on our register each term and still have the same care and commitment from our parents too, which we are very grateful for.
This last term we have all learnt a lot about the scouting world and community with our programme, such as visiting our community garden and also having visitors at the hut to help us grow and learn and earn our badges. This included International visitors who we now are pen-pals with.
Lastly, I would just like to say a huge thank you to my Squirrels team, Debs, Dave, Kat, Jasmine and newly recruited Craig, and my young leaders Hannah, Leonie and Jessica who come most Fridays. Also, the squirrels and parents who make every Friday evening fun and enjoyable.
For the next year 9th North Watford Squirrels has become an inspiration to each other and the team as they care help and encourage their friends.

Woodland Beavers Report
This past year has been quite fulfilling for the Woodland Beavers. Our programme was full of engaging meetings and wonderful events that allowed not only the children but also the team to learn new skills, work together, and create lasting memories. Some of the best bits of this year include our visit to the local care home where we were joined by the Ocean Beavers and participation in the remembrance parade, which allowed the children to come together with the community for a lovely service. The excitement of the Beaver Sleepover and our success at the Beaver Bangers added a touch of fun and competition that everyone enjoyed.
Throughout the year, we held many productive meetings that catered to a variety of interests and skills. Children learned about space, celebrated Chinese New Year, and focused on healthy eating during Healthy Eating Week. Badges were earned through creative activities and science experiments, while fun games such as pancake flipping and kick rounders kept spirits high. This year has really bought a sense of belonging among our Beavers.
Looking ahead, we have much to look forward to, including another Family Camp and more district events that promise to be both informative and enjoyable. These upcoming activities will provide more opportunities for our Beavers to engage with one another while developing new skills in a fun environment.
We are delighted to have welcomed Sally, Ruth and Lindsey to the team and I’d like to thank them all for their dedication and hard work over the year. Their efforts have made every meeting and event run smoothly and have ensured the children had the best experiences.
As we say farewell to Jazmin, who is moving on to help with the Cubs, we would like to express our gratitude for her contributions to the group. Her support and engagement will surely be missed, but we are excited for her new journey.
I would also like to thank our amazing Beavers for making the past year enjoyable for all the leaders involved, you are the reason what we do is so rewarding! A heartfelt thank you also goes to the parents for their ongoing support and to all the volunteers who help run our group from behind the scenes. We look forward to another exciting year of Scouting together.

Ocean Beavers Report
We officially opened our new beaver colony in November 2024 with 19 eager young people.
Each week we gathered for meetings that saw our beavers take part in a mix of creative and educational experiences from thematic events like bonfire night and Christmas crafts to hands on activities such as finger puppet making and cooking. We've aimed to foster an environment where learning and fun go hand in hand.
In addition to our weekly meetings, several events stood out since our opening: The remembrance parade allowed our members to honour and remember those who served, our care home visit alongside Woodland Beavers provided an opportunity for interaction with the community reminding our Beavers of the value of kindness and engagement with others, while the group Christmas party was a delightful gathering that brought joy and festive spirit to everyone involved.
In closing a heartfelt thank you goes out to the team and to our Beavers for their enthusiasm and joy in participating, it is their eagerness that makes my role as leader so enjoyable. We anticipate another fulfilling year ahead filled with opportunities for growth and fun in scouting.

Cub Leader’s Report
This past year has been significant for our Cubs group, marked by various experiences and achievements. Notable events included our exciting sailing sessions and the memorable Cub camp, which provided opportunities for our Cubs to engage with nature and develop new skills in a fun environment with our Squirrels and Beavers.
Throughout the year, our meetings focused on an array of important topics including digital citizenship, navigation, orienteering, and first aid. The Cubs had the chance to earn badges in these areas, and we would like to highlight that a total of over 416 badges were awarded during the period from January 1, 2024, to December 31, 2024. Our gatherings also included outdoor activities such as scavenger hunts and wide games at Lees Wood, which encouraged teamwork and exploration.
This year, we were pleased to present four Chief Scout Awards, recognising those Cubs who have demonstrated an exceptional commitment to their scouting journey. These awards stand as a testament to the hard work and dedication shown by our young members and serve as an inspiration for others.
I would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to all of our leaders for their exceptional contributions this past year. They stepped up remarkably whilst I took on the District Lead Volunteer role, ensuring that the Cubs received the best guidance and support. I am truly grateful for their efforts.
Looking ahead, there are exciting plans in place for the coming year, including more Family Camps and cross-sectional events that will allow our Cubs to interact with fellow scouts across the District.
Finally, a warm thank you to all the children for their enthusiasm and spirit that made this year enjoyable for the leaders. Additionally, I would like to express my gratitude to all the parents for their continual support and to the volunteers who work diligently behind the scenes to keep things running smoothly. We look forward to another productive year in scouting, filled with learning and fun.

Scout Leader Report
It has been a great year for the scout group; with numbers rising to at least 20 members joining us on a regular basis. They have grown so much, both as people and the development of their skills which has been aided by a varied programme.
We have had an action packed evenings with activities such as shooting, axe throwing and many an enjoyable ready steady cook.
We have also tried out a more Scout led programme, with each patrol organising a full evening. Led by their patrol leaders we saw trash fashion, team building, fort making (followed by dodgeball testing) and a cooking evening, planned, organised and led by our Scouts.
We unfortunately had to say goodbye to Kat, who moved away from the area. Her hard work and skills made her a much loved member of the leadership group. We have been very fortunate to have Daniel join the leadership team, and he has settled in well to his role as Assistant Scout Leader and is a great member of the team.
I would also like to thank Chris (Skip), Eddie and Jay for their support on a Thursday night, it has been a great year and your experience and personalities have made Thursday evenings very enjoyable for our young people.
Here’s to another great year of, growth, learning skills for life, and making friends along the way.
