Warwickshire Scout Council Trustees Report for the year ended 31[st] March 2025

Objectives and Activities

The primary purpose of Scouts is to actively support and engage young people in their personal development, helping them become well-rounded individuals who make positive contributions to society. Warwickshire Scout Council carries out this purpose across Warwickshire via 8 Districts and their local groups.

Our major activities for young people this year included the Warwickshire Gang Show, DofE events, a county trip to Belize and the operation of our Activity Centre.

In addition, we continued to provide training and development to volunteer leaders throughout the County. This enabled the opening of new sections, particularly for the new squirrels age group.

The annual census on 31[st] January showed youth membership had grown by 1.0% to 5648 and adult volunteer membership of 1777. The growth in volunteer leaders is encouraging as it enables new sections to develop and provide places to young people that may be on a waiting list, and open sections at Squirrels level.

Core Strategy

Warwickshire Scout Council supports the overall strategy of The Scout Association known as Skills for Life. A new strategy is expected to be in place from Spring 2026, and is currently being developed by The Scout Association.

Our vision for 2025: By 2025 we'll have prepared more young people with skills for life, supported by amazing volunteers that deliver an inspiring programme. We'll be growing, more inclusive, shaped by young people and making a bigger impact in our communities.

Our mission: Scouts actively engages and supports young people in their personal development, empowering them to make a positive contribution to society.

Our values: We act with care, respect, integrity, cooperation, exploring our own and others’ beliefs.

Our goals. Our four goals are:

Growth - Scouting succeeds when we offer opportunities to as many young people as possible.
Inclusivity - Scouting continues to become more reflective of the diversity of UK society.
Youth Shaped - Scouting works better when young people shape their experiences.
Community Impact – Scouting is an active part of the community and works with the community.

To support the achievement of these Goals, Warwickshire Scouts is organising our activities are five operational pillars:

Safer Scouting
Delivering a Quality Programme
Developing and Recognising our Volunteers
Transformation
Future Fit Warwickshire

Achievements and Performance

The delivery of a broad and interesting programme of activities has attracted new

members and provided all members with personal development opportunities to grow their Skills for Life.

We are also pleased to have successfully delivered a trip to Belize for explorer and network scouts in Summer 2024.

We have also transformed the way we scout, following the implementation of the ‘transformation changes’. We want to make volunteering with Scouts more fun, so that we can attract more volunteers and our current volunteers will want to stay. We have been listening to our volunteers, young people and we've identified three key areas for change:

Providing a warmer welcome for everyone
Delivering a more engaging learning experience
Simplifying how we volunteer together

This has been supported by a new digital tool since December 2024, which has lead to some challenges for volunteers as the implementaiton has not been smooth.

The County Leadership structure follows that outlined by the TSA:

Financial Review

Income for the year was £553K. Alongside our usual County activities, Warwickshire Gang Show (WAGS) and Alfrey Activity Centre this year included a major international trip to Belize. Expenditure was £540K resulting in net income of £13K, of which £12K related to the Activity Centre. Training expenditure was particularly high at £12k, primarily on first aid as volunteers caught up with any delays caused by the COVID pandemic.

Our reserves policy is to hold sufficient resources to continue the charitable activities of the County should income or fund-raising activities fall short of expectations and to enable the County to underwrite its planned programme of activities, including large scale events. The Trustee Board has reviewed the impact of recent economic, social, and financial pressures on its capability to deliver education and development opportunities to young people and has maintained the level of Designated Reserves.

The County holds the following Designated Reserves:

9 months Running Costs for events and regular activities	27,000
Potential uninsured loss on large events	22,000
County Camp Site 50% of annual Operating Revenues	25,000
County Camp Site Restoration Reserve for end of Lease	25,000
Warwickshire Gang Show 50% of annual Operating Revenues	24,000
Get In 2026	6,000
Total	129,000

The County currently holds total reserves more than this level and continues to seek to develop camp and activity centre opportunities to use the excess reserves. However, the Trustee Board considers it should also plan an annual operational deficit in its operating

budget to manage the excess amount. The Trustee Board have developed budgets and strategic plans to reduce the level of excess reserves over the medium term. These plans are closely aligned to supporting the outcomes set out within the County’s overall Strategic Plan.

None of the funds managed are in deficit and no assets are held by the Charity in the capacity of custodian trustee.

The County held total funds of some £516,000 at year end and has adopted a low-risk investment strategy. All funds are held in current accounts and low risk interest bearing accounts, using only FSCS protected accounts.

With the County Treasurer, the Trustees regularly monitor levels of bank balances and interest rates to ensure the County is receiving best value and income from its banking arrangements.

The risks that would significantly impact the finances of the County are primarily a reduction in the membership numbers and the poor management of large events. Management and decision making processes are in place to minimise these risks and have been operating effectively for many years.

Structure, Governance and Management

The Warwickshire Scout Council is a trust established under the rules which are common to all County Scout Councils as prescribed within the Policy, Organisation and Rules (POR) of the Scout Association. Trustees are recruited and appointed in accordance with the relevant sections of the POR.

Warwickshire Scout Council is registered with the Charities Commission, number 506367.

The Trustees have in place systems and internal controls that are designed to provide reasonable reassurance against material mismanagement or loss. These include two signatories/authorisers for all payments, comprehensive insurance policies to ensure that insurable risks are covered and regular reports and risk assessments by those seeking to /or running events or activities on behalf of the Scout County.

The Trustees have had due regard to the guidance published by the Charity Commission on public benefit and are of the opinion that the Charity meets the Charity Commission public benefit criteria under both the advancement of education and the advancement of citizenship/community development.

The Charity has no principal office. The public address for correspondence is The Oaklands, Wainfield Lane, Gwehelog, Usk, Monmouthshire NP15 1RT.

The day-to-day operations of the charity are organised and delivered by the County Lead Volunteer and a small team of County Team Volunteers. Strategic and governance matters are agreed with the Trustee Board.

Section C Notes to the accounts (cont)

Note 2 Accounting policies 2.2 INCOME

This standard list of accounting policies has been applied by the charity except for those ticked "No" or "N/a". Where a different or additional policy has been adopted then this is detailed in the box below.

Recognition of income
Donated services and facilities that are consumed immediately are recognised as income
with an equivalent amount recognised as an expense under the appropriate heading in
the SOFA.
The cost of any stock of goods donated for distribution to beneficiaries is deemed to be
the fair value of those gifts at the time of their receipt and they are recognised on receipt.
In the reporting period in which the stocks are distributed, they are recognised as an
expense at the carrying amount of the stocks at distribution.
Donated services and
facilities
Donated services and facilities are included in the SOFA when received at the value of
the gift to the charity provided the value of the gift can be measured reliably.
Income from interest,
royalties and dividends
This is included in the accounts when receipt is probable and the amount receivable can
be measured reliably.
Income from membership
subscriptions
Membership subscriptions received in the nature of a gift are recognised in Donations
and Legacies.
Membership subscriptions which gives a member the right to buy services or other
benefits are recognised as income earned from the provision of goods and services as
income from charitable activities.
These are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when:
 the charity becomes entitled to the resources;
· it is more likely than not that the trustees will receive the resources; and
 the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability.
Donated goods
Contractual income and
performance related
grants
Offsetting
There has been no offsetting of assets and liabilities, or income and expenses, unless required or
permitted by the FRS 102 SORP or FRS 102.
Grants and donations
Grants and donations are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition
criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP).
This is only included in the SoFA once the charity has provided the related goods or
services or met the performance related conditions.
Donated goods are measured at fair value (the amount for which the asset could be
exchanged) unless impractical to do so.
In the case of performance related grants, income must only be recognised to the extent
that the charity has provided the specified goods or services as entitlement to the grant
only occurs when the performance related conditions are met (5.16 FRS 102 SORP).
Legacies
Legacies are included in the SOFA when receipt is probable, that is, when there has
been grant of probate, the executors have established that there are sufficient assets in
the estate and any conditions attached to the legacy are either within the control of the
charity or have been met.
Government grants
The charity has received government grants in the reporting period
Tax reclaims on
donations and gifts
Gift Aid receivable is included in income when there is a valid declaration from the donor.
Any Gift Aid amount recovered on a donation is considered to be part of that gift and is
treated as an addition to the same fund as the initial donation unless the donor or the
terms of the appeal have specified otherwise.
Gifts in kind for use by the charity are included in the SoFA as income from donations
when receivable.
Support costs
The charity has incurred expenditure on support costs.
Volunteer help
Donated goods for resale are measured at fair value on initial recognition, which is the
expected proceeds from sale less the expected costs of sale, and recognised in 'Income
from other trading activities' with the corresponding stock recognised in the balance
sheet. On its sale the value of stock is charged against 'Income from other trading
activities' and the proceeds from sale are also recognised as 'Income from other trading
activities'.
Goods donated for on-going use by the charity are recognised as tangible fixed assets
and included in the SoFA as incoming resources when receivable.
The value of any voluntary help received is not included in the accounts but is described
in the trustees’ annual report.

2.4 ASSETS

Intangible fixed assets
Heritage assets
Debtors
Debtors (including trade debtors and loans receivable) are measured on initial recognition at
settlement amount after any trade discounts or amount advanced by the charity. Subsequently,
they are measured at the cash or other consideration expected to be received.
Stocks and work in
progress
Stocks held for sale as part of non-charitable trade are measured at the lower or cost or net
realisable value.
Goods or services provided as part of a charitable activity are measured at net realisable value
based on the service potential provided by items of stock.
Work in progress is valued at cost less any foreseeable loss that is likely to occur on the contract.
Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost
categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources, eg allocating property costs
by floor areas, or per capita, staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage.
They are valued at cost.
Investments
Fixed asset investments in quoted shares, traded bonds and similar investments are
valued at initially at cost and subsequently at fair value (their market value) at the year
end. The same treatment is applied to unlisted investments unless fair value cannot be
measured reliably in which case it is measured at cost less impairment.
Investments held for resale or pending their sale and cash and cash equivalents with a
maturity date of less than 1 year are treated as current asset investments
Grants with performance
conditions
Where the charity gives a grant with conditions for its payment being a specific level of
service or output to be provided, such grants are only recognised in the SoFA once the
recipient of the grant has provided the specified service or output.
Grants payable without
performance conditions
Where there are no conditions attaching to the grant that enables the donor charity to
realistically avoid the commitment, a liability for the full funding obligation must be
recognised.
The charity has intangible fixed assets, that is, non-monetary assets that do not have
physical substance but are identifiable and are controlled by the charity through custody
or legal rights. The amortisation rates and methods used are disclosed in note 9.5
They are valued at cost.
The charity has heritage assets, that is, non-monetary assets with historic, artistic,
scientific, technological, geophysical or environmental qualities that are held and
maintained principally for their contribution to knowledge and culture. The depreciation
rates and methods used as disclosed in note 9.6.1.4.
This includes any realised or unrealised gains or losses on the sale of investments and
any gain or loss resulting from revaluing investments to market value at the end of the
year.
2.3 EXPENDITURE AND LIABILITIES
Liability recognition
Liabilities are recognised where it is more likely than not that there is a legal or
constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out resources and the amount of the
obligation can be measured with reasonable certainty.
Investment gains and
losses
The charity accounts for basic financial instruments on initial recognition as per
paragraph 10.7 FRS102 SORP. Subsequent measurement is as per paragraphs 11.17
to 11.19, FRS102 SORP.
Tangible fixed assets for
use by charity
The depreciation rates and methods used are disclosed in note 14.2.
Governance and support
costs
Support costs have been allocated between governance costs and other support.
Governance costs comprise all costs involving public accountability of the charity and its
compliance with regulation and good practice.
Settlement of insurance
claims
Insurance claims are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition
criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP) and are included as an item of other
income in the SoFA.
They are valued at cost.
These are capitalised if they can be used for more than one year, and cost at least £400
Redundancy cost
The charity made no redundancy payments during the reporting period.
Deferred income
No material item of deferred income has been included in the accounts.
Creditors
The charity has creditors which are measured at settlement amounts less any trade
discounts
Provisions for liabilities
A liability is measured on recognition at its historical cost and then subsequently
measured at the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at the
reporting date
