Be Prepared... the meaning of the motto is that a scout must prepare himself by previous thinking out and practicing how to act on any accident or emergency so that he is never taken by surprise. My belief is that we were put into this world of wonders and beauty with a special ability to appreciate them, in some cases to have the fun of taking a hand in developing them, and also in being able to help other people instead of overreaching them and, through it all, to enjoy life - that is, to be happy. Happiness doesn't come from being rich, nor merely from being successful in your career, nor by self-indulgence. Try and leave this world a little better than you found it, and when your turn comes to die, you can die happy in feeling that at any rate, you have not wasted your time but have done your best. **Robert Baden Powell** All members stood in memorial for those called to a higher service. Rotherham Scouts Broxholme, Grove Road Rotherham, S60 2ER 6 ## **Item 3: Apologies for absence** Apologies were received from the following members: - Neil McKay (South Yorkshire County Commissioner) - Richard Hinchliffe (Rotherham District Chairperson) - Billie Clark (10[th] Rotherham) - Andrew Dudley (24[th] Rotherham) ## **Item 4: Approve the minutes of the 2022 Annual General Meeting** - **Proposer** : Lisa Langton - **Seconder** : Sue Toalster - **Vote** : Minutes unanimously approved by show of hands ## **Additional:** - Barry Dale stated that had not personally received the AGM paperwork and preferred to use traditional means of communication – e.g., postal address / telephone call. - Ash Cox stated they would pick up with Barry after the AGM to ensure future communications are delivered by the preferred channel. - Sally Harrison stated there were challenges in receiving the communication, as it had landed in her junk folder. - Ash Cox advised that the Rotherham District would be reviewing how we contact members soon and would pick up with Sally separately. Rotherham Scouts Broxholme, Grove Road Rotherham, S60 2ER 7 ## **Item 5: Chairperson report** Rachel Fox read Richard Hinchliffe’s report on his behalf since he was unable to attend. It’s been another great year for Rotherham. Having stepped into the role of Chair I have been amazed at the support of our volunteers to ensure that safe and fun Scouting is delivered to as many young people as possible. This is my final year as a member of Rotherham Scouts. When I joined the District, we were mid pandemic, disjointed in our communications, with a deficit budget to manage. Due to the hard work between all of us, we now move closer to a balanced budget while working hard to keep the levy down. We’ve seen scouting grow and grow each year as more young people see the benefits of your hard work and amazing efforts. I will miss the district but as we move to the new transformation roles and I leave you with the new trustee board, you are in good hands. Thanks **Richard Hinchliffe** Rotherham Scouts Broxholme, Grove Road Rotherham, S60 2ER 8 ## **Item 6: District Lead Volunteer (DC) Report** Rachel Fox read her report. Thank you for another great year in Rotherham Scouting. A clear highlight for me is the continued growth of the Squirrels section, a special mention is due to all the Squirrels volunteers as they have hit the ground running in providing really great scouting for our youngest and newest section as well as supporting each other in the process. This growth is due to continue into 2024 as we look forward to opening 2 more new Squirrels sections. As a District we can start getting excited for the District Camp next year, and I hope that this can be the first step in working together to increase connection and skill sharing between groups. I am working closely with the District Events Lead to continue putting on District-wide events going forward, in order to make this an achievable goal we will need Events Team Volunteers! If you would like to volunteer to assist with our Events Team, please let me know. This can be either as a permanent member of the team or as a ‘pool’ volunteer where you can pick which events you would like to help on as and when – if you would like to be a team member or a ‘pool’ volunteer, please do get in touch with myself or Jordan Mangnall. This year has brought significant change in our organization, particularly with new role titles and structures. We are in a good position to adopt this change and I thank you all for getting on-board and asking all the right questions in the process. The new online system is imminent and there are currently a range of guide videos on how to navigate the same if you want to get ahead of the game. There will also be additional training provided for those who would like extra support. Thank you again to all of you for giving up your free time to provide skills for life for the young people in Rotherham, you are all appreciated greatly and I wish you all a successful 2024 both in and out of Scouting. ## **Rachel Fox** Rotherham Scouts Broxholme, Grove Road Rotherham, S60 2ER 9 ## **Item 7: Trustee Annual Report** Rachel Fox checked that all attending members had visibility of the annual report – all confirmed they had, and asked if there were any questions.

Rotherham Scouts Broxholme, Grove Road Rotherham, S60 2ER 1 1 ## **Item 11: Appointment of District Officers** - Rachel Fox asked Matt Brelsford to take the role of District Chair - No other nominations were received for the role of District Secretary or District Treasurer, and as such: - Matt Brelsford asked Ash Cox to take the role of District Secretary - Matt Brelsford asked David Boot to continue the role of District Treasurer ## **Item 12: Appointment of District Trustees** - Matt Brelsford announced the following members had been nominated to fulfil the role of Distrist Trustees: - Lisa Langton - Alexandar Young - David Humpries - Aimée Kemp - Kieran Reeves - Matt Brelsford enquired whether there was anyone else that was interesting in being part of the District Trustee team. - Nobody came forward. - Matt Brelsford asked Rachel Fox whether she had any nominations, of which she had not. - Debbie Day retains District Trustee status since she is the District Explorer Scout / Network Commissioner (ex-officio) ## **Item 13: Elect members of the District Trustees to represent the District on the County Scout Council** - Rachel Fox invited Matt Brelsford and Ash Cox to represent the District on the County Scout Council. - Both accepted Rachel’s invitation.

The main areas of concern which have been identified are: Rotherham Scouts 2 1 Broxholme, Grove Road Rotherham, S60 2ER - Damage to buildings, property, and equipment that are the responsibility of the Rotherham District. The district would request the use of buildings, property, and equipment from neighbouring organisations, such as the church, community centre, and other Scout groups or the Scout County. The Rotherham District has sufficient buildings and contents insurance in place to mitigate against permanent loss. - • Injury to leaders, helpers, Supporters, and members. The Rotherham District through their membership fees contributes to the Scout Association’s National Accident Insurance Policy. Risk assessments are undertaken before all activities. - • Reduced income: The Rotherham District is primarily reliant upon income from subscriptions and fundraising. The Rotherham District holds a reserve to ensure the continuity of activities should there be a major reduction in income. The Trustees could raise the value of membership fee to increase the income to the Rotherham District on an ongoing basis, either temporarily, or permanently, if required. - • The Rotherham District is totally reliant upon volunteers to run and administer their activities. If there was a reduction in the number of leaders to an unacceptable level, in a particular section, or unit, then there would have to be a contraction, consolidation, or closure of a section or unit. In the worst-case scenario, complete closure of the section or unit. - • The Rotherham District has in place systems of internal controls that are designed to provide reasonable assurance against material mismanagement or loss, these include two signatories for all payments, and comprehensive insurance policies to ensure that insurable risks are covered.

The Rotherham District income and Expenditure is modest and

therefore adopted a low-risk strategy to the investment of its funds.
All funds are held in cash using only mainstream banks, building
societes, or the Scout Associaton’s Short Term Investment Service.
The Rotherham District Executve regularly monitors the levels of
bank balances, and the interest rates received, to ensure the
Rotherham District obtains maximum value and income from its
