Both the Scout Association and the Charity Commission require accounts to be kepl at least on a
minimal 'receipls and payments" basis. The attached accounts meet these criteria bul go further by
including more sophisticated leatures such as Prepayments. Depreciation and calculab'on of profit and
loss. These additional features are required by the ex￿ptiOnal size and complexty of the Group, which
the Trustees believe call for it lo be managed on a more business4ike basis than most Groups around
the Country.
Overall Finan¢lal Posltlon
The group, in 2024. posted a loss of £6,684.79 following a loss of £17.104.38 in 2023.
Income
The group has seen a drop in income £29.238.40 in 2023 to £27.331.90 2024 WFth a drop in

through the purchase of group equipment for activities, minor repair5. retirement gift for Anne Belcher
and the AGM in 2024 and other 5rnaller items.
Overheads
2024 saw a signfficant reduction in overheads from £37.175.85 to 25,009.67. There were several
reasons for the reduction. Gas price decreased in 2024 after seeing the unprecedented increase in 2023
meaning our cosls reduced from £7.978.15 10 £2.503.47 although there was an increase in both
Electricity and Water costs by £3.127.94. 2023 saw a number of one off higher than usual expenses for
the Minibu5 and improvements and repair5 al Avery Hill which were not repealed in 2024, contributing to
the reduction in overheads.
The full year effect of the Minibus and Soft Play Area at Avery Hill being fully depr￿latIng in 2023 also
ontributed to the reduction in overheads by £4.864.71.
Capital Expenditure
There was minor Capital Expenditure in 2024 for the purchase and storage unils for Fire Pits for use
during scouting activibes.
Balance Sheet
The balan￿ sheet remains in good health with deposits held with our 8ath Building Society of
£55,078.96. The bank balance at the end of Ihe year was £31.750.7429,119.90 with an average daily

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of First Royal Eltham (Holy Trinity) Scout Group Charity no. 303660** 

I report to the Trustees on my examination of the accounts of the above for the year ended 31 December 2024. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As Trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’). 

I report in respect of my examination of the charity’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect: 

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or 

2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair view’ which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination. 

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
