Treasurers Report - 4th Leicester Scouts AGM - 24/25 

Thank you all for coming this evening, | won't keep you long. 

You will see that | have put copies of the accounts for 24/25 on the tables, if you have any questions please feel free to ask. 

If you’ve had the opportunity to look at the accounts you may have noticed that there's no Capitation listed, this is because the Scout Council sent the bills out late and payment has gone into this year’s accounts. The Capitation amount for 24/25 was £2511.60. 

Capitation this year is almost £60 per child which is the equivalent of 4.7 months of subs. That is a large amount to account for before we have even looked at the running costs of The Barn. So the trustees have made the difficult decision to raise subs by £1.00 a month from this September. It's important to note that we haven't increased our subs for over 10 years. 

As you can see we also claim Gift Aid, which helps us keep our costs down so could | please ask all parents/guardians to check, if eligible, that they have completed the Gift Aid section on OSM. 

You will also notice that we have received a couple of grants from the Scouts Council this year of £6900.00 and £7000.00, these were given after the recent purchase of The Barn to go towards ground improvements. As many of you are aware we are currently in negotiations with Blaby Council as the building now falls within a Conservation Area, we will obviously keep you informed of any developments.
