Group Scout Leader’s Report

So, my first time writing one of these in the big chair!

As was expected as we crept out of the national, and indeed international, lockdowns due to COVID-19 our leaders stepped up and moved us gently back towards face-to-face scouting. Having been back to school I think a lot of our young people were reasonably comfortable with the idea, but it is true testament to the dedication of our leadership team that they plucked up the courage to start to deliver for our young people again.

We got back to our hall and we got back to scouting in the sense that we know it. I have to say one of the greatest joys I have seen has been my daughter returning to scouting and her becoming the person that she is, having become some form of half child-half duvet creature during the lockdown years. This evening in fact I have left her running around laughing and playing with her friends at Hemlock with the cubs.

I took over the role of GSL from Colyn in September 2021 and a dauntingly large pair of boots to be filled they are too! It goes without saying how much of a debt of gratitude we all owe to Colyn, but I am going to say it anyway. Under his leadership 6[th] Beeston has been one of the most successful scout groups out there. We have more young people having more adventures in more places than ever before. It is testament to that leadership that he was welcomed back to the cub pack on his retirement as GSL.

Since our return we have been steadily rebuilding but it remains that we cannot offer places to all the young people and families that want to get involved in 6[th] Beeston Scout Group as we don’t have enough adult volunteers to expand any further than we have done. That said we are in a strong position to develop our programs and offer more upskilling to our leaders who will then pass those skills on to the young people.

I’d like to finish up by once again thanking all of our members, the young and the not so young, for all that they have done to make 6[th] Beeston Scout Group the thriving family that it truly is. I hope that we can welcome more of you onto our team to help us to keep doing what we are doing.

Taz Donnelly – Group Scout Leader (Since September 2021) Colyn Kemp – Group Scout Leader (up to September 2021)

6[th] Beeston Scout Group

Chairman's Report

This year has seen a period of consolidation for 6th Beeston Scout Group. Following the repeated restrictions of the previous year, moving back to face to face meetings in a new health and safety regime has posed challenges the group. It is to the credit of the executive team, the leadership group, and all of the people who contribute to the running of the sections that we have now returned successfully to providing Scouting sessions for all of our young people. We are now in a strong position to build our provision for all our young people again.

This year the Group has had a change of leadership, with Taryn Donnelly stepping up to Group Scout Leader (GSL) in November from his role as Assistant GSL. I would like to thank Colyn Kemp for his long term of service as GSL, during which time he has overseen a period of substantial growth and ensured that the Group has a secure future. I am very pleased that he has continued to support the Group as an Assistant Cub Leader, as his knowledge and experience are a great asset to the Group. I was very pleased that Taryn agreed to take on the role of GSL during a challenging period, providing much needed continuity in leadership. As we return to more ‘normal’ activities, there is a real opportunity for the Group to achieve new levels of success.

On behalf of all parents and young people in the 6th Beeston community, I would like to thank all those who give their time to volunteer as leaders for all of the sections. Without your efforts the group could not provide the excellent Scouting experience to our young people. I am also very grateful to the parents who volunteer and make the range of activities that we provide possible.

The Group’s successful relationship with the 345 Preschool Nursery has continued this year. Managing the way back to providing access to headquarters for all users has been a success and I am pleased that we have been able to support 345 throughout a challenging period. The excellent relationship between 6th Beeston and 345 provides direct benefits for everyone associated with the Group and delivers on our commitment to providing a community space in the Group HQ.

As always, I am extremely grateful to all of the members of the Executive Committee, who volunteer to give their time to support the success of the Group and its activities. This year I would like to particularly note the contributions of Katharina Meyer-Ohle in her time as Group Treasurer. She has volunteered a huge amount of her time in this role for many years. Her meticulous work has contributed to the financial security of the Group, particularly as we have navigated the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic. I also thank David Meatcher for his continuing support auditing our annual accounts. His contribution is highly valued.

Alas, this year marks the last full year in my tenure as Group Chairman. I plan to step down at the next AGM, and wish the next Group Chair all the best for the future. I will continue to support the Group throughout the next year, providing a period of transition to the new leadership. I wish all involved with the Group every success in providing Scouting to our community.

Alexander Tarr Group Chair

6[th] Beeston Scout Group

Treasurer's Report (Financial year 2021/22)

Income

Subscriptions: A total of £11,275 in subscriptions was collected this financial year. This income to the Group was offset by the payment of our membership fees of £5,296.50 to the South West Notts District Scout Association.

Fundraising: The Group raised £16 for Group Funds during the year. Please support the group by using Easyfundraising and the recycling centre.

Donations: The Group reclaimed £2,447 in Gift Aid relating to 2020/2021 so please make sure you complete the Gift Aid declaration on the standing order form.

Legacy: The trustees administering the funds for the Richard Moorhouse Legacy decided to transfer the total remaining amount of £18,914 to the group rather than paying 5% per year for the remaining 18 years. This will prevent administration charges and inflation depleting the amount unnecessarily. The legacy is to be used for the maintenance of Scout HQ, so is shown as restricted funds in the accounts.

COVID Grants: The group received a total of £10,667 of Local Authority COVID related grants based on Scout HQ being registered for business rates.

Rental Income: We have continued to hire out Scout Headquarters to help with the running costs and received £14,717 in rental income for the year. Our hirers included 6[th] Beeston Brownies, 3rd Beeston Rainbows, Pre-school 345 and the Tram and Light Railway Society.

Expenditure

Premises: The cost of ownership of land and buildings continues to be the major source of expenditure for the Group. The total premises cost came to £12,810 for the year which included: £1,289 for insurance, £4,063 for electricity, £496 for the water supply, £687 for waste removal, £5664 on cleaning (including £3,708 for additional COVID related cleaning), £1,940 on general repairs and £407 for Performing Rights licences.

Activities:

Activity expenses came to £2717.

Equipment: Equipment purchases for headquarters and camping came to £930 including two new tents, a green screen and a security camera.

Neckers/Badges etc.: £840 was spent on neckers, woggles, badges and handbooks.

Admin Expenses: Admin expenses came to £1,231 covering telephone provision, broadband, OSM Memberships, stationery and web hosting.

6[th] Beeston Scout Group

Net receipts for the year

The accounts for the Group show an operating surplus for the year of £33,772.86. £24,135.20 of this surplus is related to the COVID related grants and the transfer of the total legacy amount (net after deducting expenses against these items).

Assets

The Group’s Assets stated in the accounts at the end of the financial year 2021/2022 are £131,179.63.

This includes funds for medium term and long-term building maintenance, cover in case of loss of a major hirer and camping equipment maintenance and replacement and subsidies for scouting activities.

Planned work includes addressing the issues with the garden and investigating the installation of solar panels. In addition, while electricity costs are fixed until the end of January 2023 the group is expecting a significant increase in electricity costs after the expiry of the fixed contract.

COVID-19 Crisis Statement

The Group’s main risks during the COVID-19 crisis are the loss of subscriptions if Scouting had to be paused for a significant time and the loss of our major hirer (Pre-school 345).

The Group were able to claim £10,667 of small business grants which has allowed us to be able to mitigate the impact of the lower level of subscriptions in the first quarter of the financial year. The Group increased the frequency of cleaning to ensure COVID compliance.

The Group’s reserves are sufficient to allow us to operate for at least the next 2 years.

Beaver Section Report

The Beavers are all ecstatic to be back to meeting in person, children and adults alike! We really missed our sessions at HQ.

With new children joining us our colony now stands at a wonderfully noisy 20 beavers split into 4 lodges. To mark our new start post-pandemic, we decided to re-name them, using the opportunity to have a ballot and covering part of the You Shape badge. The winning theme was Star Wars, so our lodges are now called Wookiees, Droids, Jedis and Ewoks!

The Beavers have been enjoying their usual combination of fun/creative/active/learning in sessions whilst storming our way through the badge criteria.

The current beavers are the first at 6th Beeston to complete the new money skills badge, which we combined with the Jubilee celebrations to make it topical. A great example of the SKILLS FOR LIFE ethos of scouting. We've tracked the progress of our homegrown green beans, nasturtiums and lettuce for our Gardener Badge, done "Show & Tell" style presentations for our Hobbies & Collectors badges and turned the HQ into an intergalactic adventure to earn our Space Badge.

Other badges we have been covering this year include Musician, Camp Craft, Health & Fitness, International, Communicator, Explorer, Cook, Disability Awareness, Creative, Safety and of course we're always chipping away at the criteria for those all-important Challenge Badges.

Soon we are off up to Hemlock for a night of tent pitching, trails through the woods, games and campfire songs.

There have also been some new additions to the leadership team, seeing Kodiak Bear (Matthew Wilshee) & Grizzly Bear (Carmen Petrone) being invested at our last investiture ceremony, with Care Bear (Lucy Snowdon) joining us since. Always room for more though! And if you can ever spare a bit of time to lend a hand in sessions, no matter how infrequently, you will be greatly appreciated.

Yours in scouting Polar Bear (Rachel Jerath)

Cub Section Report

Last year’s report ended on a hopeful note for a return to full Face to Face Scouting in September of 2021. I’m glad to say that this was the case and we’ve had a full year of planned programme with no interruptions! We planned our Spring/Summer ’21 programme to be delivered outdoors in the hope that this would mean some consistency in our ability to deliver good session to the Cubs. This saw us out and about in our hi-vis vests, picking litter in Beeston churchyard and doing a community walk to find out about our local services for Our World badge. Kim delivered a wonderful session teaching us all about Thai customs and a few tricky Thai words, and we made use of the local park for some fun athletics.

The outdoor theme continued in the HQ garden into the summer, with the Cubs making fatty bird feeders, planting seeds, lighting fires and pitching tents. Of course, every summer term has to end with the famous Cubs’ Water Olympics !!

In August Rama and Issie ran a marvellous one-night Leadership camp for our sixers at HQ. They covered some skills needed for their roles such as the flag ceremony and had a great trip out on the tram to Highfields to enjoy boating on the lake and mini golf. The evening saw them cooking their own tea outdoors with a little help from Kim, and most importantly they had a lot of fun. It is hoped to provide this again for each new set of sixers. COVID-19 caused a bit of a change to the usual schedule, with Summer Camp being moved to September. We descended on Johns Lee Wood for an outdoor skills-packed weekend and, because nothing this year was as expected, we invited our recent leavers along to be a Scout contingent. As ever thanks must go to all the Leaders, Young Leaders and other adults who make the whole thing possible and so much fun for everyone.

September saw us focussing on our Disability Awareness badge with some great activities. We had a walk around Beeston, inspecting access issues that disabled people might face. Much hilarity with a serious message was had with blindfold/hand-tied sandwich making! We learnt about some inspirational disabled people such as our Para-athletes, Steven Hawking and Rose Ayling-Ellis and ended the term by filming ourselves signing Silent Night in Makaton for the Christmas carol service.

The start of 2022 saw the Cubs stargazing with Tigger’s telescope for their Astronomer badge. Paddington was invited along to give a fascinating talk about her memories of old Beeston for our Local Knowledge badge, and we also did a Blue Plaque walk to learn all about the history where we live. Again, COVID-19 caused a bit of a change to the normal way of things, with Winter Camp being moved to March to try and outrun the outbreak of the Omicron variant. The cubs braved sleeping outdoors in tents and Issie planned a great programme for them at Robin Hood with a Winter Olympics theme.

As ever, we had to say goodbye to some of our wonderful Cubs during the year as they moved onwards and upwards. The following Cubs all gained their Chief Scout’s Silver Award, a great achievement: Lyra, Charlotte, Ismael, Ada, Will, Oliver, Libby, Rebecca, Harry. Cubs are lucky to have a magnificent, strong team- Rich (Rama), Nuttavee (Kim), Issie (Chil), Chris (Rikki), Jo (Hathi), Emma (Ikki), Colyn (Tigger) and our newest recruit, Peter (Shere Khan), plus our wonderful Young Leaders, Rob (Bagheera), Lucas and Daisy. Many thanks to them all for making Monday nights such fun.

6[th] Beeston Scout Group

Scout Section Report

The year 2021-2022 was an exciting one for Scouts as it marked the return to face to face Scouting. It was also a year of growth for the Troop as we now have over 30 active members.

Back at the start of the year in March, while still online, we were able to work through our creative challenge badge culminating in a fantastic flag to commemorate our Scouting experiences during the pandemic. We also began work on our outdoor challenge badge which will continue during our upcoming camp this July.

In the final weeks of the summer term, the option to return to in person Scouting became available and we made the most of the good weather meeting at Hemlock campsite to play games, sing campfire songs and even enjoy some marshmallows over a fire.

September called for a return to more normal Scouts, and although some restrictions still remained, we still managed to have fun with tents, maps, bonfires and a mass investiture of over 20 Scouts and 4 new leaders who had missed out during the pandemic. Despite this amazing achievement, the highlight of the term was a slew of evenings run by the Scouts, where each patrol worked together to plan and run a whole evening. I would like once more to say, well done to all the Scouts for your hard work for these evenings, it really paid off providing 4 unique nights of activities.

The first term of 2022 unfortunately started on a slightly down note as the Troop had been hoping to take part in the annual NESST walk which had to be cancelled due to COVID restrictions. However, we still enjoyed a wide range of activities within our normal meeting time including a knotty web security challenge, an axe/saw/knife evening and a brilliant photo hunt that an old member returned to lead for us! We also engaged in some

world events and celebrations such as pancakes for Shrove Tuesday and a St David’s day taster evening.

Looking forward to the next year, we will be offering a number of camping opportunities, hopefully a return to NESST and maybe a few badge opportunities to fill out some shirts. We will also engage in a host of other activities to round out what will hopefully be another enjoyable year. Thank you all for a great year at Scouts, let’s make the next one even better!

Magellan Explorer Scout Section Report

This year has been a year of change and growth for Magellan ESU. In September we said goodbye to a fantastic bunch of young people who have stuck with us throughout some very difficult times. We wish them all the best in the next chapter of their lives and hope to see them again soon. However, we welcomed a large enthusiastic group up from Scouts, some of whom had not been active with since before the pandemic hit. Along with these, the unit seems to grow on an almost weekly basis, a testament to our growing reputation as an active and friendly Explorer Unit

We have also welcomed 3(!) new leaders in the form of Nik, Oliver and Chris whose enthusiasm and hands on nature have made a world of difference to the quality of programme we are able to deliver.

Activities-wise, this year we have continued to be out and about as much as possible with activities including curry tasting, taskmaster challenges and a water activity day, along with more traditional scouting skills such as navigation and cooking on fires. We also had a very successful camp in September at The Mill Adventure Base near Mansfield.

We have a number of Explorers completing Duke of Edinburgh Awards either through schools or the District DofE provision and are working to convert these to the top awards in scouting.

Looking ahead we have two camps planned for the summer. Caving for the adventurously minded, and Narrow boating for those who prefer life at a slower pace. Next winter we also have a winter walking weekend booked in the Lake District.

Explorer Scout Leader

C6 Groups and Districts Receipts & Payments Form (Multi-fund)

Note A: Restricted Funds Reporting

The trustees administering the funds for the Richard Moorhouse Legacy decided to transfer the total remaining amount of £18,914.03 to the group rather than paying 5% per year for the remaining 18 years. This will prevent administration charges and inflation depleting the amount unnecessarily. Therefore the restricted amount will now be reported against the CAF Gold Savings Account.

Note B: Tax Claim for Year 2021/22

This is the Gift Aid amount due to the Group for the year 2021/22 which will be claimed from HMRC in the current financial year.

C7 Groups and Districts Receipts & Payments Form (Multi-fund)

Designated Funds

There are £833.03 raised towards the purchase of a defibrillator. Fundraising was paused during Covid and will be restarted in the next financial year.

Restricted Funds

The Group received a legacy of £22,169.74 from Mr Richard Moorhouse in January 2019. This legacy was held in trust by his executors (Solicitors: Rothera Sharp), but as stated in Note A above, the total remaining amount has now been paid to the group. The stipulation that the funds are to be used for maintenance still remains.

Independent Examiner's report to the Trustees of 6th Beeston Scout Group

I report on the accounts of the Group for the year ended 31st March 2022.

which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet and related notes.

This report is made solely to the trustees in accordance with Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011. My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the charity’s trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an Independent Examiner’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity’s trustees for my examination work.

Respective responsibilities of Trustees and Examiner

The Group’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. They consider that an audit is not required for this year (under Section144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act)) and that an independent examination is needed.

It is my responsibility to:

145 (5) (b) of the Charities Act); and

Basis of Independent Examiner's report

My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the Group and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a 'true and fair' view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.

Independent Examiner's statement

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:

  1. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements

of the Charities Act

have not been met; or

  1. to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
