Section C	Objectives and activities
Summary of the main activities in relation to these objects Summary of the objects of the charity set out in its governing document	The Purpose of Scouting Scouting exists to actively engage and support young people in their personal development, empowering them to make a positive contribution to society. The Values of Scouting As Scouts we are guided by these values: Integrity -We act with integrity; we are honest, trustworthy and loyal. Respect -We have self-respect and respect for others. Care -We support others and take care of the world in which we live. Belief -We explore our faiths, beliefs and attitudes. Co-operation -We make a positive difference; we co- operate with others and make friends. The Scout Method Scouting takes place when young people, in partnership with adults, work together based on the values of Scouting and: - enjoy what they are doing and have fun - take part in activities indoors and outdoors - learn by doing - share in spiritual reflection - take responsibility and make choices - undertake new and challenging activities - make and live by their Promise.
	The group fulfils the above objectives by running two Beaver colonies, two Cubs packs, a Scout troop and an Air Scout troop. The Group also has an affliated Explorer unit.

	The Group meets the Charity Commission's public benefit criteria under both the advancement of education and the advancement of citizenship or community development headings.

Section D	Achievements and performance
Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year
	This year saw the return of face-to-face Scouting following the pandemic. This included a gradual return to socially distanced outdoor activities following carefully designed protocols to minimise the spread of infection. As restrictions were lifted, meetings also moved indoors and camps also resumed for some sections. The year also saw new leaders take over the running of Charnock Cub Pack which will ensure the continued provision of Cubs on a Monday evening. A significant acheivement was the receipt of the DCMS Youth Investment Fund (YIF) grant for the purchase of an additional 17 seat minibus, which will enable transport to be proivide for young people for many years to come, as well as increasing the level of transport that can be provided. Importantly, the minibus can be driven a standard car licence, increasing the number of drivers available. The Scout HQ building and grounds have been brought back into use. An abestos survey has been undertaken to enable us to manage abestos risks and a maintenace contract is in place for the upkeep of the grounds.

Section E	Financial Review
Quantify and explain any designations Brief statement of the charity’s policy on reserves 4 LT700001 (3rd December 2018)	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 Group Executive Committee considers that the group should hold a sum equivalent to 12 months running costs plus a further amount for unexpected building maintenance and minibus repairs or replacement. This is considered to be circa £33,000, which is increased from last year to allow for current and forecast levels of inflation. The Group held reserves of approximately £57,860 against this at year end. This is above the level required for operating expenses. This includes a £2,472 underspend that will be returned to the DCMS YIF next financial year. Allowing for this and the increase in reserves required due to inflation, the level of reserves has remained broadly the same as lastyear.

N/A

Further financial review details (optional information)

Youmay chooseto include additional information, where relevant, about: • how expenditure has supported the key objectives of the charity; • the charity’s principal sources of funds (including any fundraising); • investment policy and objectives;

The Group Executive regularly monitors the levels of bank balances and the interest rates received to ensure the group obtains maximum value and income from its banking arrangements. Occasionally this may involve using an account that requires a period of notice before funds may be withdrawn, before doing so the Group Executive considers the cash flow requirements. Investment Policy The Group's Income and Expenditure is very small and as a consequence does not have sufficient funds to invest in longer-term investments such as stocks and shares. The Group has therefore adopted a low risk strategy to the investment of its funds. All funds are held in cash using only mainstream banks or building societies or The Scout Association's Short Term Investment Service.

Section F	Other Optional Information
Plans for future periods (details of any significant activities planned to achieve them)
	The Group will continue to invest in the youth programme and equipment with the objectve of increasing the number of young people participating in Scouting in Gleadless. The Group also intends to invest in the safety and maintenance of the building and grounds, where this is required.
