3 Harrogate St Johns Scout Group

Annual report for year ended 31° st August 2025

The accounting period for the group has previously been amended and is now runs to 31st August.

The new Group Treasurer was appointed in January 2023 and has prepared these set of accounts

The Group continues to operate 2 x Beaver Colonies, 2 x Cub Packs and 2 x Scout Troups along with an Explorer Unit and generally has good numbers and attendance.

Along with activities throughout the year for all sections a Group Camp was arranged at Great Tower, Cumbria in for July 2025 with good attendance and was deemeda great success. In addition to this a number of camps/events have been organised for all sections throughout the year.

The Group now continues to bank with CAF bank enabling electronic paymens and integration with OSM and payment cards for expenses have been issued to all Section leaders to remove the requirement for personal expenditure.

The Group continue to generally have good numbers of Leader although additional support is always welcomed and many sections have made appeals for parent helpers and assistants. The Group continues to promote scouting within the community and has a waiting list for entry into the Beaver session, that is currently able to offer a place for all young persons at the entry age.

The aim of preparing a balanced programme for all young persons remains the main focus of the Group, whilst keeping subsciption costs as low as possible to enable this to be as accessible as possible. However due to rising operating costs this is never an easy task and constant review of subscription and events cost is required for future years to maintain the successful operation of the group.

We would extend our thanks to everyone involved for continuing to make 3rd Harrogate Scouts a safe, happy and successful group.

The accounts have been drawn up on the receipts and payments basis, in accordance with the Association POR rules that are common to all Scouting Districts and Groups and anyone wishing to view the accounts in more detail can contact the Group Treasurer.
