TRUSTEES' ANNUAL REPORT YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
The Trustees are pleased to present their report and financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2021.
Structure, Governance and Management
The Loose Swiss Scout Group is a separate registered charity established under the Policy, Organisation and Rules of The Scout Association, which are common to all scout groups. Trustees are appointed in accordance with these rules, either by election or by approval of their nomination at the Annual General Meeting. The Group is managed by the Group Council, which consists of the Trustees and Section Leaders. The members of the Group Council who served during the year and up to the date of this report are shown on page 1.
The Trustees seek to identify the major risks that they believe the Group is exposed to and continually review the procedures to eliminate them.
Objectives, Activities and Achievements for the Public Benefit
The Trustees confirm that they have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the Group's aims and objectives and in planning future activities.
The purpose of scouting is to promote the development of young people in achieving their full physical, intellectual, social and spiritual potential, as individuals, as responsible citizens and as members of their local, national and international communities. This is achieved by providing an enjoyable, interesting and active programme, developed and based on the Scout Promise and Law, under guidance from the adult leadership and the Scout Association.
At Loose Swiss, we have maintained this approach with a wide programme of activities throughout the year for each of our sections of Beavers, Cub Scouts and Scouts. We continue to support Ragstone Explorers Unit from the Maidstone East District who are based at our headquarters in Loose. However, due to the Covid Pandemic they have not been utilizing this offer at present. This is, of course, only achieved through the efforts of the dedicated teams of warranted leaders and their approved helpers, backed by the supporters of the Group and our reputation, both in the immediate locality and within the District, which continues to be maintained at a high standard.
The Group admits members primarily from the area of Loose and the surrounding district although some members come from further afield. Although subscriptions are charged for membership, these cover only approximately half of the running costs of the Group and do not unduly restrict membership. The Group follows the principle that no one should be excluded because of their inability to pay membership subscriptions.
The Group Council has met regularly throughout the year, with meetings open to all and subsequent minutes circulated, and the executive committee has also met additionally, to review urgent matters and resolve minor items involving the Group, which have then been reported at Group Council.
The maintenance of sufficient leaders and helpers has continued during the past year and all sections have been able to continue with their programmes throughout the period of this report. Overall numbers have remained at a similar level as the previous year, both in terms of leaders and section members. Our census figures in January 2021 recorded 23 Beavers, 38 Cub Scouts and 22 Scouts. The sections have been led by 35 warranted leaders and authorised helpers. The waiting list at the year end continues to remain high and remains closed for the forthcoming year in order to keep the intake to a manageable level.

TRUSTEES' ANNUAL REPORT (CONTINUED) YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
The Group as a whole owes its success in the activities to the leaders who turn out weekly to provide activities to the young people who attend Loose Swiss Scout Group. The activities undertaken are in accordance with the scouting ethos and promote adventure and learning.
The maintenance of our headquarters buildings have once again been overseen by Mark Sunnocks and John Beeching. Our thanks are due, as ever, to the small, hard working team of individuals for their continued support.
Each section, enjoyed the continued use of our facility in Loose Valley, as well as normal evening meetings at headquarters and where needed to minimize risks, via Zoom. The Group continues to be grateful to the "civilian" helpers, who contribute in many ways to the success and ongoing wellbeing of the Group, particularly the assistance at jumble sales and other fundraising events despite, in many cases, no longer having children in the Group, but continue to support the activities.
Swiss Valley
The role of land warden has been maintained mainly by Robert Wood with occasional help from Steve Harley. These both deserve our immense thanks for the exceptional effort in maintaining our land asset with little support. Our agreements with the fishing club, using our lake, and with a local farmer with grazing rights, have been continued, bringing additional funds to the Group.
Supporters Association and Land Committee
The small, but enthusiastic, Land Committee continue to support work in the valley with financial contributions from their activities, as well as their invaluable attendance at our other fundraising activities.
Financial Review
The Group’s accounts have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice (Accounting and Reporting by Charities) applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective from 1 January 2015) and known as the Charities SORP (FRS 102), and the Charities Act 2011.
Total income for the year amounted to £40,126 an increase of £8,437 on the previous year's figure of £31,689. This increase was due to the COVID relief grants received by Maidstone Borough Council. Total expenditure during the year at £28,632 was slightly higher than the previous year's figure of £24,993. An increase of £11,100 in expenditure on the repairs and maintenance of our freehold land and buildings. Unfortunately, due to the substantial falls in world stock markets we have an unrealised loss on our share portfolio of £1,4332. However, 2020/21 saw a clawback of £12,368 of the losses suffered in the preious year. At the end of the year the general-purpose income free reserves amounted to £43,885 (2019/20 £29,313). The Group’s policy on such reserves is to hold an amount sufficient to meet the general running expenses of the Group for a period of approximately twelve months.

Trustees' responsibilities in relation to the financial statements
The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year, which give a true and fair view of the Charity’s financial activities during the year and of its financial position at the end of the year. In preparing financial statements giving a true and fair view, the Trustees should follow best practice and:
-
select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed, subject to any departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Charity will continue in operation.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy the financial position of the Charity and which enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the Policy, Organisation and Rules of The Scout Association. 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.
Covid-19 pandemic
In response to the Covid-19 pandemic the Scout Association has maintained high alert and notified when and if applicable face to face meetings needed to cease or indeed continue. Throughout the year, the group maintained its presence to ensure full scouting activities were offered whilst maintaining all H&S protocols.
Summary
The Group has enjoyed another successful year, thanks to the hard work and dedication of the section leaders and their assistants, not forgetting the essential help from the Group Scout Leader and Assistant Group Scout Leaders, and the invaluable support of the many helpers in fundraising activities
Thanks are also due to the treasurer Kathryn Moore for their assistance in collating the section reports and producing the Group Annual Report in a concise, but clear, manner, but also for looking after the Group's financial interests.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE LOOSE SWISS SCOUT GROUP
I report on the accounts of the Group for the year ended 31st March 2021 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet and related notes set out on pages
This report is made solely to the trustees in accordance with Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011. My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the charity’s trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an Independent Examiner’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity’s trustees for my examination work.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The Group’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. They consider that an audit is not required for this year under Section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
-
Examine the accounts under Section 145 of the Charities Act;
-
Follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145 (5) (b) of the Charities Act; and
-
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner’s statement
My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the Group and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a "true and fair view" and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent examiner’s statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
-
which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements:
-
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act;
-
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act
have not been met, or
- to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31st MARCH 2021
I report on the accounts of the Group for the year ended 31st March 2021 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet and related notes set out on pages 5 to 11
This report is made solely to the trustees in accordance with Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011. The review has been undertaken so that I might state to the charity’s trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an Independent Examiner’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity’s trustees for the examination.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The Group’s trustees are responsible for the maintenance of the Financial Records and preparation of the accounts, they considering that an audit is not required under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (The Charities Act) and that an Independent Examination is needed.
I have, therefore: Examined the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act; Followed the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145 (5) (b) of the Charities Act; and
Included in the Report any matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner’s statement
My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the Group and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a "true and fair view" and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent examiner’s statement
In connection with the examination, no matter has come to my attention:
(i) Which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements
- to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Act: and
-to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the requirements of the Act and that the regulations have not been met: or
(ii) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31st MARCH 2021
I report on the accounts of the Group for the year ended 31st March 2021 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet and related notes set out on pages 5 to 11
This report is made solely to the trustees in accordance with Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011. The review has been undertaken so that I might state to the charity’s trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an Independent Examiner’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity’s trustees for the examination.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The Group’s trustees are responsible for the maintenance of the Financial Records and preparation of the accounts, they considering that an audit is not required under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (The Charities Act) and that an Independent Examination is needed.
I have, therefore: Examined the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act; Followed the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145 (5) (b) of the Charities Act; and
Included in the Report any matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner’s statement
My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the Group and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a "true and fair view" and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent examiner’s statement
In connection with the examination, no matter has come to my attention:
(i) Which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements
- to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Act: and
-to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the requirements of the Act and that the regulations have not been met: or
(ii) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
