5 District Chairman’s Report

Richard acknowledged that it has been some time since we last spoke, met or were together as one.

The District Commissioner has established himself in the role. A bit of restructure has meant some fresh ideas.

The constant of experience remains.

Scouting has continued to positively touch the lives of young people on Barking and Dagenham.

This has been a truly testing year, not only for Scouting Community but for the wider world.

It seems hard to find the bright and shiny in such times. I have watched with keen interest the ingenuity shown to keep Scouting alive in Barking and Dagenham. Richard spoke about his Scouting career in Barking and Dagenham. This is my final AGM.

Go well and safely.

6 District Commissioner’s Report.

Thank you to Richard. Thank you to everyone for your support during my first year as District Commissioner.

Richard was presented with Commissioner’s Commendation and Adrian thanked him for his support, advice and guidance.

A big part of my first year was learning about the wider District and getting to know more people. There have been a few changes to the District Team.

The census in January showed another year of growth in the District.

It was a privilege to be involved with the Walk for Jodie. In November I got to do my first Jack Petchey Presentation evening and saw most of our groups join the Remembrance Parade in Barking. I finished November by getting in the pool for District fun splash.

Barking & Dagenham District Scout Council – Annual Report & Accounts 2020-21

It was good to see young people and adults enjoy themselves at our annual Founder Day event.

We have adjusted to a new way of meeting during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Recruitment of new young people is still possible, it is just different.

We can do it! If it is not working, change things and try again.

Communication is not my biggest strength. It is important to deal with things that can be avoided.

I would encourage us all to work as a team to take the District forward and grow.

I can’t finish without thanking Richard for his time as District Chair. He has done a fantastic job and will be missed.

District Chairman vacates the chair and steps down.

2020-2021 Annual Report and Accounts

District Chair's Report

Hello all, unfortunately another AGM that has to be virtual, as with all of our meetings this year.

It’s been an odd 8 months as District chair, with very little face to face scouting taking place. And with my continued inability to meet you all in person. However despite these continued challenges, we have all rose to the situation and kept scouting alive in Barking and Dagenham, and so I thank you all for your continued hard work and Support of the District.

A big part of my role so far has been learning about the different cogs that make the district work, as many of you know I do not come from a scouting background and it is amazing the work you all put in. Special thanks to Adrian and Stephen who have ‘held my hand’ when needed this year.

Looking to the future I know Adrian as District commissioner has some great plans and I’m really looking forward to working on these.

My hope is that moving forward we can put these plans into place, rebuild lost numbers due to the pandemic, continue to grow and deliver scouting to as many young people in the district as possible, and that next year’s report can include more on what we have been able and allowed to do,

I look forward to working with you all as we can return to Normal and ‘proper’ scouting.

All the Best

Sean Wade – District Chair

District Commissioner’s Report

It’s already time for my second report as District Commissioner. There’s not going to be much to cover off around events, but there is plenty of other good stuff to look back over.

I’m going to start by looking at the census and how it compared to the previous year. Our young person membership was down by 116 compared to the previous year. That’s just under a third.

Barking & Dagenham District Scout Council – Annual Report & Accounts 2020-21

Normally, that would be something that should have me, the GSLs and DESC panicking, but with everything that COVID caused it’s actually not that bad, and some of our groups help up pretty well. I’m sure there will be Districts around the country that lost a bigger proportion of its members than we have.

To hold up as we did is a credit to everyone that has kept going for their groups and units whether it was on Zoom, in person or keeping things ticking along behind the scenes as part of executive committees.

What we need to do next is get ourselves back up to the numbers we were before COVID, and then keep going. That isn’t going to be easy, especially where some groups are still facing challenges in getting back to face to face meetings. While I’ve said it isn’t easy, it’s a long way from being impossible. I know the groups that have been able to meet face to face for a while are getting new members join, and there have been plenty of enquiries coming in from the main Scouts website.

There have been more changes to the District team, with Lara Coltelli joining us as ADC for Communications and Events. Lara has a background in these things and has put a lot of work into both updating our District website and helping us get more quantity and quality into what we’re putting out on social media.

While it is a little outside of the time this report should cover, we’ve also had Michael Tucker and Toom Bever take a step on from the District Executive roles by taking on roles as District Youth Commissioner and Deputy District Youth Commissioner respectively. They’re not had much chance to get into the roles properly yet, but I’m confident that they’ll both be playing a big part in how we take the whole District forward.

It would be really easy to look back over April 2020 to March 2021 and be completely negative about it. What’s happened has happened. Now is the time to move on and take things forward. There will be risk assessments to write and get approved and some things might be more difficult than they maybe used to be. None of that should be stopping any of us though. I said a few things last year about doing what we’ve always done and being afraid of change. If we’re ever going to be trying different things, then now’s the time to be doing it. If anyone out there wants to try something different, then as far as I’m concerned as long as it doesn’t breach POR or cause a safety or safeguarding issue then go for it. If you need support from District to do it, just ask – the whole point of the District team is to provide support. If whatever you try doesn’t work, it doesn’t work. We’ll learn from it and move on.

If Baden-Powell hadn’t been willing to try something a bit unusual back in 1907 none of us would be sitting here now.

Barking & Dagenham District Scout Council – Annual Report & Accounts 2020-21

Before I finish, I’d like to thank every member of the District Exec and District team for their support over the last year. It’s not been easy, we won’t always see eye-toeye on everything but the most important thing is that we work together to make sure that Barking & Dagenham is providing the best quality Scouting to as many young people as possible.

I’d especially like to thank Hazel as she finishes her time as District Treasurer. We’ve got a fantastic view of where we are financially and your support and flexibility in getting things sorted out quickly has been amazing.

I’ll sign off here with a thank you to all of you for your support over the last year. The next year is going to be better, we are going to move forward.

Adrian Sinclair – District Commissioner

Treasurer’s Report

The accounts for 2020/21 are presented in the format recommended by the Scout Association. There is a receipts and payments account and a statement of assets and liabilities as of 31 March 2021. The columns show unrestricted, restricted and total funds and the previous year’s figures for comparison.

The cash funds brought forward at the beginning of the year were £54,513.

After membership subscriptions of £10,846 were paid on to the Scout Association, income in the year totalled £50,092. This included a one -off receipt of £38k for the extension of the lease on a freehold property owned by the District at Albany Road, Chadwell Heath.

Fees of £6.5k were received for Dane Camp 2021 from the summer of 2020 onwards. These were refunded in early 2021 when it became clear that the trip could not take place as planned because of COVID19. Other income from the usual sources of activity fees, donations, grants and fundraising was severely reduced.

Expenditure in the year totalled £19,062 including the Dane Camp refunds of £6.5k. As no face-to-face youth programme and activities were possible for most of the year expenditure on these were very limited. Money was spent on setting up the ForJodie Project, completing the first phase of the DHQ improvements and on fixed costs such as insurance and the website.

The property assets held by the District are shown on page 3 of the accounts. These are the investment property at Albany Road mentioned above and the District’s share of the freehold of Thriftwood Campsite.

Barking & Dagenham District Scout Council – Annual Report & Accounts 2020-21

The cash funds held at year end were £86,719. This included restricted funds totalling just under £16k for the ForJodie Project, Explorers’ donation, international funds and Network. A further £36.5k has been set aside for the Explorers, Dane Camp, phase 2 of the HQ works project and the District’s COVID recovery priorities of retention, recruitment and support for Groups.

The unrestricted reserves at year end stood at just over £34k. This puts the District in a strong position to deal with the continuing challenges of COVID19 and its longer-term impact. The District needs to have enough funds in hand to meet its liabilities including insuring and keeping the headquarters building in good repair.

The District Executive Committee continues to keep the budget and reserves policy under review to make sure that there is a balance between improving the facilities that support the District alongside providing a wide programme of activities for all sections.

Hazel Taverner - District Treasurer

Beavers Section Report

Since our last AGM it has been tough with many different challenges needing to be overcome. So much extra work has needed to be done from running weekly Zoom meetings to organising face to face meetings with strict restrictions, having Covid Specific Risk Assessments approved and making sure that all activities have their own Risk Assessment.

I am so impressed with the determination of our leaders to continue to bring Scouting to our Young People no matter what obstacles were put in their way.

I am grateful for everything, big or small, that has been achieved throughout our District and would like to thank everyone for their efforts in continuing to provide Scouting in any form for the Young People of Barking & Dagenham.

I know that Beaver numbers in the District are low at present due to the effects of the pandemic, although some may have left, the majority will have moved on to Cubs during the last 15 months with very few opportunities to recruit. However, I have heard from many groups across the District with young people wanting to join, so have every confidence that membership numbers will grow.

Our Beavers had a wonderful time on our Zoom Christmas Party in December, around 30 Beavers and Leaders enjoyed fun and games with activities from some of our Leaders, as well as from Bam Bam a children’s entertainer and a story from Santa in his grotto.

Barking & Dagenham District Scout Council – Annual Report & Accounts 2020-21

April was the 35th anniversary for the Beaver Section, 1st April 1986, Beavers officially became part of the Scout Association and to celebrate we held a badge design competition, Sadly, this was not very well supported by our Young Members but those that did submitted some very good badges. All entries were put up to a vote, the vote was very close but I am delighted to announce that the winner is Shrihan from 9th B&D Beavers, Congratulations. Shrihan will receive a certificate and their badge will be made and will be available soon.

I am very proud of all our Beavers for their amazing work during these difficult times, and am very impressed that some have completed their Chief Scout Bronze Award during lockdown as well, WELL DONE to them all. I look forward to meeting them all Face to Face very soon.

Once again, I would like to thank everyone for their continued support, we have a wonderful team of leaders and I appreciate every single one of you, without your support, help and guidance we would not have the superb District that we do.

I look forward to continuing to work with you. Thank you x.

Diana McNaughton – ADC Beavers

Cubs Section Report

Whilst sitting here writing this report, I am thinking back to the last 15 months of worry, uncertainty, and very little face to face scouting, and contemplating what I can write.

We started the year with all Face-to-face scouting having been halted on the 16[th] March. By the 1[st ] of April only a few groups in the district were running their Cub packs virtually. As lockdown continued a few additional groups managed to connect with their young people, either via Zoom or by setting tasks via Facebook.

Late summer saw an easing of lockdown with groups being able to meet face to face, albeit with stringent rules for social distancing. Unfortunately, by the time some groups were able to organise locations and “how” they could meet the country went into a second four-week lockdown.

The beginning of December saw groups being able to meet face to face indoors, once again with strict rules. This saw a few more groups meeting, but there was still a large number that could not, due to not being allowed to use their usual meeting place or availability of leaders.

Even though lockdown had been hard on our Cubs, we had 2 in the district who were recognised with Commissioners Commendation awards for going above and

Barking & Dagenham District Scout Council – Annual Report & Accounts 2020-21

beyond what is expected of them. Tise from the 16[th] gave a cooking demonstration and a Q&A to a group in Harrogate, and Michael from the 6[th] didn’t allow the change in Scouting to stop his badgework and dedication to Cubs. He even clapped for the NHS each week in full uniform!

When the Census figures were compiled for 2021 the number of Cubs in the district had shrunk from 140 down to 100.

Even though the last year has been extremely worrying and stressful for leaders, we can be proud as Cubs leaders, that we have been able to continue to deliver a high standard of scouting to our members. Yes the numbers were down, but from reports back from a few groups, new Cubs have been joining almost weekly.

So before I bore you any further, I would like to say a massive thank you to all the Adult volunteers for giving up their time and providing skills for life to all our YP.

But the biggest thanks, as always, is to the Cubs who have been flexible, loyal, bringing lots of fun, adventure keeping the section lively and never dull!!

Stuart Bailey – ADC Cubs

Scouts Section Report

So when I wrote my report last summer, Scouting in B+D had very much hit a low, with all normal activities suspended, and everyone trying to get to grips with running online activities. For some, the transition was harder than it was for others, but I am delighted to see Scouting returning to pre-COVID levels, with some groups back running active programmes whilst others continue to run online programmes [where their meeting places remain unusable].

But despite all the strangeness, I’m delighted to say that our numbers, according to the Jan21 census, have only dropped by 20 members, from 100 to 80. Whilst any drop in numbers is not ideal, I think with all things consider this is a great success, and a testament to the leaders in the district who have successfully kept the interests of the Scouts, and kept them turning up to section meetings, whether online or in person.

Looking forward to what I hope is a return to normality, we will look to get some District events going again, with some ideas for some camps, including a first District Camp for a while, and our return to Denmark next summer.

The past year has been tough, but we made it through, and i truly believe that the future will be better than ever.

Explorers Section Report

After our first month of virtual scouting, we have covered a multitude of programmes. From cook-a-long sessions, pioneering at home, countdown, s’mores, campfires, camping at home and games nights, and young leader training.

During the summer when we were able to meet outside, we began to reopen and this time with 2 units. This was to assist with the management of numbers for the risk assessment as well as beginning to fulfil the District Explorer strategy to open a second unit. Over the past year we have stayed at a steady 24 Explorers and welcomed more from Scout groups across the District and County.

We have also gained new leaders into the team, with Taffy joining as an assistant section leader.

Over the winter months we returned to online scouting as we entered lockdown again. Meeting as a District provision. Although numbers online were lower, we continued to have 8-15 explorers each week.

We were then able after Christmas to begin planning the programme for our return to face to face scouting in March 2021 focussing on a return to our back to basic scouting skills such as fire lighting and camp craft.

Anna Skipworth – District Explorer Scout Commissioner

Network Section Report

The pandemic has caused chaos to Scouting, with Network being severely restricted as the numbers allowed to meet being as low as 6 for much of the time.

We kept hoping that with every announcement from the Scout Association that the rules would change and allow us to meet up in the same numbers as the other sections.

As the first lockdown eased a little we had an enjoyable night at Thriftwood, with good conversation, fire, investitures and positivity, however lockdown 2 or was it 3, meant we were soon back on zoom.

Network continued to undertake their leader training with the online short sessions proving popular, and able to be accessed from uni or home.

Top awards are an important element of Network and we held a Top Awards evening with us reviewing individuals progress and looking at post Covid opportunities for Queens Scout and Gold DofE Expeditions.

Barking & Dagenham District Scout Council – Annual Report & Accounts 2020-21

In February we held an online games night. A really fun night, with a very unexpected winner.

In March we joined the Explorers for an online marshmallow toasting evening. Thank you for the Explorers for inviting us, and we look forward to more joint events in the future.

By April the rules were relaxing, and the Scout Association had amended the restrictions for Network, which allowed us to meeting inside for the first time in over a year. We joined Hornchurch Network streaming live with a professional mixologist, where we learnt how to make cocktails. It was great to meet up face to face and virtually at the same time.

Network continues to be a space for those moving on from Explorers which allows them to Scout with their peers and not automatically have to be leaders.

Numbers are growing and we are looking forward to more face to face meetings as lockdown eases, camps, top awards, and most importantly keeping in contact with each other as a group.

Andy Dodkins – District Scout Network Commissioner

ForJodie Project Scout Active Support Unit – ForJodie Project Report

Covid has slowed the projects progress although it has continued behind the scenes with the project now building momentum again.

We have been developing a website which outlines the projects aims and will allow us to deliver the elements for the project through it.

These include offering free online first aid training for all; providing resources for Scouters to deliver the Emergency Aid staged badges 1 to 3; and also the purchasing of our own Bleed Control Kits.

One of our challenges was finding the right first aid trainers who had the same vision as us. This proved difficult, and it was suggested that Andy would train as a first aid trainer to be able to deliver first aid training inhouse.

In Autumn 2020 Andy completed his training and we set ourselves up as a training centre with Protrainings.uk

Unknown to us this was to prove to be a key milestone in the project. The Managing Director of Protrainings.uk heard about our project and offered to support us. This

Barking & Dagenham District Scout Council – Annual Report & Accounts 2020-21

has included providing free online First Aid Courses, and also working with us in developing our own Bleed Control Kit, all of which will be available via our website.

In addition to the above we have also been delivering Module 10a First Aid training to Scout leaders, and intend to extend this to Module 10b (Practical First Aid) as lock down eases.

We are also able to offer formal first aid qualifications, and are about to deliver an Emergency First Aid at Work course to another local charity.

We are working on soft launches as elements of the project are ready, so please keep an eye out for updates on our website and social media pages.
