1[st] CLIVE'S OWN SCOUT GROUP, WELSHPOOL

Trustees' Report for the year ended 31[st] March 2025

The trustees present their report and accounts for the year ended 31 March 2025.

The accounts have been prepared on a 'receipts and payments' basis and as such there is no requirement to demonstrate compliance with formal accounting standards.

Objectives and activities

The running of a local youth organisation, namely the Town's Scout Group and management of the Scout building which is also one of the Town's community facilities. The Trustees confirm that they have had due regard to the Charity Commission guidance on public benefit when preparing the activities for the year and believe that this is at the centre of what they provide throughout their activities.

The trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the charity should undertake.

Achievements and performance

During the year the charity has continued to run Scouting and Community Centre activities in line with its charitable objectives.

Financial review

The charity raised funds in order to meet the costs of providing the scouting and community centre activities required through the year. The requirement for free reserves for scouting activities is low and the charity therefore does not consider that significant free reserves are required. However, the charity continues to endeavour to maintain reserves covering at least 6 months operating costs on the community centre.

The trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed, and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error.

Structure, governance and management

The Charity is a registered unit of The Scout Association in the United Kingdom. The Council is required to be governed as per arrangements laid out in the prevailing version of the Policy, Organisation and Rules of The Scout Association.

New Trustees are appointed in accordance with the arrangements set out in the Policy, Organisation and Rules.

The trustees who served during the year were:

Mr F McManus Mr V Howells Mrs M S Squibb Mr I Thompson Mr M Poole

The Trustees report was approved by the Board of Trustees.

TO THE TRUSTEES OF ISTCLIVE'S OWN SCOUT GROUP, WELSHPOOL

| report on the accounts of the for the year ended 3ist March 2025 which are attached.

Respective responsibilities of trustees end examiner

The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an independent examination rather than a full audit is sufficient insofar as the accounts have been prepared ona ‘receipts and payments’ basis reflecting the level of turnover for the year.

| have examined the accounting records kept by the charity and the accounts presented with those records and have sought explanations from the trustees as necessary. In my opinion, the accounts present a true and fair view.
