others.
Care - We support others and take care ofthe world
in
which we live.

values ofScouting and:
- enjoy what they are doing and have fun
—take part in activities indoors and outdoors

badge
work,
regular
hikes
and camps and
participation
in events
organised
by District, such as
sports
days,
football
tournaments,
quiz
nights
and swimming
events.
Our
activities
were
disrupted
by the
COVID
pandemic
in 2021/22
but we
ran face
to face meetings
whenever
permitted
and were able to resume
camps from
January
2022, subject
to Scout Association
health and
safety requirements.

~ policy on investments.

Summary Summary of the main achievements the main achievements of The Group has continued
to be fully operational
throughout
the charity during the year the
2021/22
financial
year,
observing
Scout Association
COVID-related
requirements.
In addition
to holding
weekly
face to face meetings
wherever
possible,
we were able to
resume
"nights
away"
activities,
with
all sections
holding
camps or sleepovers
in the final quarter
ofthe year. Twenty
nine
scouts
attended
the
Group's
first
camp
since
the
pandemic.
Cuba had a visit to Peckham
fire station, a winter
camp
and
a
successful
District
chess
and
draughts
tournament.
Beavers enjoyed
their first pancake
day at the
hall and had a sleepover,
completing
their Builder's
Badge
in the process. Face to face fundraising
activities
resumed,
including
a Halloween
disco,
Christmas
dinner
and
bingo
event. We have organised
a fully subsidised
Group
bowling
event for May 2022 to celebrate
the Group's
birthday
and
mark the resumption
of normal
activities
al'ter the pandemic
(as planned
in the previous
financial year).
Briefstatement ofthe charity's policy on
reserves Reserves Policy
The
Group's
policy
on
reserves
is
to
hold
sufficient
resources
to continue
the charitable
activities
of the group
should
income and fundraising
activities
fall short. The need
for a reasonably
substantial
reserve
was
illustrated
during
the
COVID
pandemic.
The
Group
Executive
Committee
considers that the group should
hold the following sums:
613,660 for one yeads
rent (in light of rent review due this
year),
utilities
(in
light
of increased
gas
and
electricity
charges), garage
rent, van expenses
and insurance;
repairs
to the
hall
held
over from
2020/21
(including
new
toilet
facilities) (f10,000); cost of a D1E driving
qualification
for J
Chiles to allow him to drive the minivan
and trailer (f1,500)
f2,000 towards
purchase
of a newer
minivan
when
we
consider the current vehicle needs to be replaced,
reflecting
i
'depreciation
in value of current
minivan
The Group considers
it should
hold approximately
f15,000
in general
funds
to ensure
continued
operational
security.
After designated
funds
and
approximately
f5,000 in funds
collected
in 2021/22 for camps being held in 2022/23 and for
which
expenses
have
not yet been
incurred,
reserves
of
approximately
626,715 were
held against
this at year end.
This
is above
the
level
required
for operating
expenses.
However
this can be explained
by the
restrictions
on the
activities
it was possible to run during
2021/22 and the level
of COVID grant support
offered by Southwark,
which meant
our net income was significantly
higher and our expenditure
lower than
it would otherwise
have been.
