## **District Lead Volunteer Report 2024 – 25** 

## **a) Overview** 

Young people are at the heart of what we do in Scouting, both locally and further afield. Our purpose is to actively engage and support young people in their personal development, empowering them to make a positive contribution to society. 

Excellent Scouting has continued to be delivered throughout the year across our district, with groups camping regularly, undertaking adventurous activities and young people working towards the top awards in their sections. 17 Squirrels gained their Acorn award. 49 beavers gained their Bronze Chief Scout Award. 35 Cubs were awarded their Silver Chief Scout Award, with 10 Scouts earning the challenging Gold Chief Scout Award. 3 of our Explorers gained their Diamond Chief Scout Award. I know that other work towards Duke of Edinburgh awards is also ongoing. 

Our Young People have been challenging themselves and supporting the community with sponsored walks and sleepovers; some of which featured in the local press who reported the fundraising which has taken place to support homeless charities. 

January’s census reported we had 457 young people and 134 adults in the District. We now have four squirrel dreys across the nine groups, plus two explorer units. The overall number is similar to last year, but numbers of youngsters and adults can vary throughout the year. 

At the end of December, Steve Ralph came to the end of his 10 years’ service as District Commissioner, along with JP Yates and Shane Hopkins who served as Deputy District Commissioners. Thanks to them for their service and support to the District over this period.  I was appointed as Steve’s successor taking the title of District Lead Volunteer with effect from 1[st] January 2025. 

The last few months of the year also coincided with various changes within Scouting, mainly affecting adults, who now have new role titles, a new membership system to log their details and enable training and scout processes. There have been some major changes to Policy Organisation and Rules (POR) so I urge leaders to make sure that they are up to date with POR.  The ‘Welcome Journey’ has been restructured to make it more welcoming to new adults and easier to follow in the new membership system. 

## b) **Training** 

As with any new system and changes, it can be challenging to get used to the new way of doing things. I handed over my ‘Local Training Manager’ role to Karen Salisbury, with the new title of ‘Volunteer Development Team Leader’. We are still trying to figure out the reporting from the system, but the new system does have automated reminders to adults about due dates for mandatory training, for example, the Safety training – deadline of 14[th] July. However, the system also provides reports highlighting where the mandatory training has not been completed; which has resulted in several suspensions, pending completion of learning. 

The system also identifies those leaders who are still ‘provisional’ after 5 months, so that their welcome journey can be progressed; this is being taken up with Group Lead Volunteers. (GLV’s). 

Permit applications were a bit of a challenge, hopefully, this means future ones will be a bit slicker! 



‘Training Advisers’ have changed to ‘Learning Advisors’ who can support leaders eg validating learning.  The new system does make it easier to identify who assessors are and who holds permits for various activities. 

First response training was delivered to 42 leaders last year with about 10 leaders completing 

## **c) District Structure** 

I hope to post details of this on the District website soon. Some previous roles have changed slightly, so rather than ADC’s, we have a District Programme team, led by Steve Lowe, who will be looking into feedback from the Group Lead Volunteers about have more District events. Hopefully, this will include section specific activities as well as cross-section events. Apart from competitions, they are considering a District Camp next year so please feed in your ideas. 

The Volunteer Development Team, includes the Learning Advisor Team (ie previously the TA’s) and the ‘Welcome Team Leader’ is Sophie Rothwell Mason, as this is the new approach to the Adult Appointment Committee. 

Shane Hopkins is our ‘Support Team Lead’, which includes the teams for Administration, Shop Communications, and HQ maintenance. 

Peter Blundell stood down as District Explorer Scout Commissioner – thanks Peter. Michael Cooling and Josh Walters are the ‘14 – 25 leads’.  Michael is steering the Explorer sections (they’ve had 3 camps so far this year!) and also encouraging the reformation of the Viper – Young Leader Unit, under Phoebe Aspinall and Nathan Hodkinson. Thanks to Kath and Lisa for the work they did previously with the Vipers!   Josh is building Network locally (ie 18 – 25 yrs) and making closer links with Wigan Network, so that they can support our younger adult leaders on awards like the Explorer Belt and the King’s Scout Award.  Watch this space! 

Rebekah Trott stepped down as Youth Lead, thanks Rebekah!  She has been replaced by Daniel Thomond and Sam Owen Kenna. They have plans to reach out to groups and connect with the YP, and hope to work with the GLV’s and the Programme Team. 

Finally, the key part of my team is all of you, who are involved in delivering or supporting Scouting in the District. We know how stretched we can feel at times, especially if we are short of leaders, plus we have other demands on our time like family, friends, work etc. I would like us to feel more like a team.  One of the best parts of this role is coming out to meet you all, and where possible, presenting awards and wood badges in recognition the contribution you make. I was honoured to award a 70 year long service award at St George’s day to Alex Waddington! 

I want to say a big thankyou to you all, on behalf of all our young people for the time and commitment you give to them, and hopefully each other in so many ways, so that we can deliver Scouting in a safe and fun way.

## Lilford District Scout Council 

## Financial Report 2024-25 

## Overview 

2024-25 again saw an active year within the District. Changes to the governance structure were adopted because of the Charities Commission regulations update and wider Scout Association developments. 

## District Accounts 

Income was £6,349.477 lower than in 2024. Capitation was slightly up on 202 but the largest reduction was from the users of the HQ. HQ contributions were £3,813 lower than 2024. 

The District HQ has again seen significant expenditure in repairs and improvements. A new fire alarm system had to be installed at considerable cost of £7,950. As a result of this some essential re-wiring was also required at a cost of £1,636. New fencing at the front of the Shuttle Street HQ was installed (£1,500) although a grant has been received for this. However, due to timing, this was only received after the year end of 31[st] March 2025. 

Overall, the District had a deficit of £114,307.32 for 2024-25. 

## Scout Shop 

The shop suffered a small loss in the year. Sales were £883 down from 2024. If the District wants a shop, it must support it and use the facilities. We cannot continue to provide the service if it’s not being used. Please continue to support the shop! 

## International Fund 

This fund remains in account for the purposes of funding international activities. 

There were contributions made to Explorer belt activities amounting to £400 during the year. The activities on this account will begin to increase again, as the fund will be used to support any young people selected for the 2027 World Jamboree in Poland. 

## The future 

The HQ renovations are now complete. However, like the Forth Bridge, the hard work in maintaining the building continues. 

After 10 years, Steve Ralph, Shane Hopkins and myself stepped down from the District leadership team and handed the reins over to Jane Riley. We wish Jane well for her tenure and look forward to everyone’s continued support. Thank you to you all for your effort this year. 

John-Paul Yates FCMA, CGMA
