1[st] Goring Scout Group
Trustee report 24/25
The Group continues to offer great quality Scouting through both Beaver Colonies, both Cub Packs and both Scout Troops, plus the Explorer Unit.
The board of trustees has been realigned to give it more separation from the Scouters meetings, so that it can fulfil the purpose of the Board more effectively; particularly in bringing in two non-Leaders onto the Board.
Financially the Group is on a sure footing and there are no major issues or concerns with the building itself and no major expenditure to change that position.
