2020121 Scouts ANNUAL REPORT West Yorkshire
County Commissioner’s Report
Thank you all for your amazing dedication, commitment and flexibility to Scouting during the last 12 months ensuring Scouting continued to offer young people fun, friendships, new skills and adventures. You have made such a positive difference to the lives of young people and adults alike through virtual and Covid safe face to face Scouting. Parents often talked about how their children looked forward so much to the scouting section meetings during Covid times.
Yes our numbers dropped unfortunately by some 2000 young people and just under 500 volunteers. Overall we saw a drop in membership from 11297 to 8349 but very positively an increase of 6 new sections, and still one of the largest Scouting Counties in England. These numbers were far better than many predicted and in line with national averages. As we all know it’s not about the falling but how we bounce back. Bouncing back we most definitely are doing with some great influxes of both young people and volunteers. It was wonderful to attend an investiture of 9 beavers at a colony in June and I heard so many similar stories over the summer months.
Local Scout Groups really are growing rapidly which is an absolute credit to the creative and imaginative programme that our amazing leaders have continued to offer despite the pandemic challenges. As a County we know the focus needs to be very much on supporting local Scouting to grow their volunteers, provide exciting programmes, keep everyone safe, improve the volunteer experience and support our young people achieve their
Top Awards. The County Commissioner Deputy team are driving five boards to deliver that local support:
Growth Board - DCC Elaine Clough: Following the brilliant Leeds TV advert series, the coming months will see the launch of our ‘Bring a buddy’ badge scheme, the launch of supporting material for leaders and parents alike and the development of a partnership with Bradford University to help us recruit new volunteers and support a more creative programme for our older sections. The Growth board meets every two months and are always looking for more members to get involved - if this is for you don’t hesitate to email Elaine on Growth@wyscouts.org.uk.
Protect Board - DCC Gaz Pierce: The ‘Protect Board’ was formed with the aim of supporting local Scouting to keep our young people, adults and the reputation of our Scouting family, here in West Yorkshire, safe. The timing of the inception of this new board was crucial with the onset of the pandemic and much of the focus has been about supporting the safe restart of Scouting across our County. Staying safe, Safeguarding and looking after each other is absolutely paramount to West Yorkshire Scouts - support and training has been delivered to over 500 volunteers across districts in the new SA Activity Risk Assessment model, supported by a great user friendly pocket guide.
Programme Board - DCC Phil Pearson and our ACC Team: The county team have worked incredibly hard to deliver a variety of virtual opportunities throughout the year such as the Beaver JambOOree
in October, the Hamish Treasure Hunt in December and Wacklympics in January. Our emphasis is now moving to support the Reboot of local Scouting with a mixture of virtual and face to face opportunities. We have access to a lot of equipment which can be borrowed to help make section meetings more exciting and we are planning to support district ‘Wow’ days to help with recruitment and retention. We welcome Graham Starr as our new ACC Scouts and Dan Breeze our new ACC Squirrels who is taking the lead on introducing the brand new younger Squirrel section.
Top Awards Board - DCC Matt Turner: A County Top Awards board has been set up with a focus on supporting young people to achieve their Top Awards. Offering support and advice to young members and volunteers on Top awards, supporting volunteers to create programmes to allow achievement of Top Awards and supporting young members to become volunteers.
Volunteer Journey Board - DCC Howard Fishwick: The training team are keen to
ensure the volunteer journey for all is improved and particularly the volunteer experience of new volunteers to ensure we make their transition into the Scouting family as smooth as possible.
I strongly believe that it is important to recognise the exceptional and exemplary hard work of leaders across the County. To ensure we do that an Awards Advisory Committee has been created under the chairmanship of Mark Stageman and support of Vicki Pearson. You will see later on in this review our list of amazing award recipients.
Finally but certainly not least, thank you to all the truly amazing volunteers who are part of the West Yorkshire Scouting family. Scouting could not happen without yourselves. Your enthusiasm and commitment to making a difference to the lives of our young members is exceptional.
Yours In Scouting

County Commissioner
Chair’s Report
It’s a great honour and privilege to be asked to be Chairman of West Yorkshire County, knowing the caliber of some of the previous chairpersons. Although they are petite feet I had big shoes to fill, in following Linda who has done a brilliant job for 8 years in leading the county executive.
Coming in during the Covid period when scouting was effectively shut down was most unusual and to me a bit like a Monopoly game, do not pass go, do not collect £200 unless you had your own building and it was for many like being in jail, you couldn’t do anything only look out.
The great sadness of the year is that approximately 25% of our membership left the organisation and new intakes could not be accommodated but I do feel that numbers will pick up in the Autumn. The motivation to retain the rest of the membership has come from the leaders with some inspiring programmes and projects.
It is times like this when there is new management and a serious situation to re-organise and it was felt that the
county structure with also the loss of the long-standing staff at the Jubilee Centre needed to be amended and therefore it was necessary to put new protocols in place to include for now, WYS Trading and this has now been completed.
It was amazing to be told that the Late Mary Bushell had left the County a significant legacy with no strings attached. Those that remember Mary fondly, will I am sure be pleased that some of her money will be used to benefit scouting both across the county and at Bradley Wood.
Coming in from a District Executive position gave me knowledge of some of the processes within the County structure but I am indebted to the members of the Executive Committee for giving me support and information when necessa ry.
I am an eternal optimist, and I am sure that things will get better for scouting, although in many cases it will be different and not necessarily to everybody’s liking but the main issue is that we continue to offer the best scouting experience to our young people and leaders. Leslie Peers
Youth Shaped Scouting
Over this difficult year youth shaped scouting in West Yorkshire has been ever growing and in 2020 the County welcomed a new Deputy County Youth Commissioner for Programme to join our County youth team. Louis Wood has taken over from Emily Clough as she moves into her new role as 50% of ACC Network. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Emily for all her hard work in the role, making sure the events of the County are run have young peoples voices in mind. We would like to wish her every best wish for the future, and we look forward to working with you to make sure that Network across the County is Youth Shaped. I’m sure you will also join with me in wishing Louis good luck and in welcoming him into the Youth Commissioner Team.
The past year has been a difficult one for many people in many ways but Scouting and our volunteers and young people have as ever stepped up to the mark, with groups delivering and running so many amazing virtual programs and experiences for our young people. Throughout, the District Youth Commissioners have been on hand to support with youth shaped scouting and I’d like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for everything they have done throughout this pandemic.
I would also like to take this opportunity to say a huge thank you to all our amazing adult leaders and helpers that have made this our challenging year, the best it can be for our young people. They have learnt so many skills for life! For this I personally would like to thank you. Youth Shaped Scouting allows our young people to make decisions to form and
develop their own adventure, integrity, leadership, care, and cooperation in partnership with adults to learn skills for life.
We have all been much awaiting the return of face-to-face events! Unfortunately, due to COVID-19, this has been impossible overall. However, this has not stopped us from delivering and running so many amazing virtual programs for our young people with a truly youth shaped focus, from launching two Activity Inspiration guides onto the County Website (to give leaders ideas of how to do youth shaped scouting in the different levels of lockdown) to live streaming events to you at home, such as County St. George’s Day, Virtual BIG Camp, County Gang Show Pre-Party, JamBOOree, (‘in conversation with Toby Hammond’. In these events we reached some of the largest audiences to events
ever, due to the amazing reach of virtual scouting. Our youth shaped resources have also since been used across the whole of the UK by other Counties and HQ.
The Youth engagement team have also been working closely with our amazing District Commissioners to make sure that we have youth shaped scouting happening at every level. We have had so many successful recruitment campaigns despite the pandemic. We are well on our way to making sure that every District in our County has a District Youth Commissioner or Youth Team and we are here to support every district with youth shaped scouting. Our team have also been working alongside and supporting Headquarters with their Youth Shaped Scouting work as well.
Our Youth Commissioners and youth team have sat on County Sub Committees and Boards to make sure that all decisions made by the County
have a youth voice, from the Executive Committee, Growth and Development Board, Finance Committee, Protect Board, Top Awards Board, People Board, Adult Awards Board, and the Programme Team to name just a few.
We are of course very excited for the upcoming year and look forward to our scouting family coming together again, face to face (fingers crossed) and in addition some new youth shaped scouting launches coming out from HQ, so keep your eyes peeled for even more information coming out soon.
Our young people are the future of Scouting and that’s why it’s so important that we guide, support, and give them our time and energy to lead us into the future together.

West Yorkshire Scout Youth Commissioner
How Scouting works…
The Purpose of Scouting.
The purpose of Scouting is to promote the development of young people in achieving their full physical, intellectual, social and spiritual potentials, as individuals, as responsible citizens and as members of their local, national and international communities.
The Scout Method.
The Scout Method provides an enjoyable and attractive scheme of progressive training, based on the Scout Promise and Law, which is guided by adult leadership. In practice the method is best seen when young people, in partnership with adults are: enjoying what they are doing; learning by doing; participating in varied and progressive activities; making choices for themselves; taking responsibilities for their own actions; working in groups; taking increasing responsibility for others; taking part in activities outdoors; sharing in prayer and worship; making and living out their promise.
West Yorkshire Scouts Trustees have a duty to report on the charity’s public benefit in the annual report. We have assessed our aims, objectives and activities and believe we have met the Charity Commission’s public benefit criteria for both the advancement of education and the advancement of citizenship or community development.
Royal Charter...
The Scout Association exists by authority of a Royal Charter granted by King George V in 1912 and supplemented by further charters granted by King George VI and Queen Elizabeth II. These charters give authority to the
bye-laws of the Association, which are approved by Her Majesty’s Privy Council. The bye-laws, in turn, authorise the making of rules for the regulation of the Association’s affairs. The rules are laid out in the Policy, Organisation and Rules (POR) of The Scout Association.
West Yorkshire Scouts is an autonomous charity affiliated to The Scout Association, which together with other County, District and Group Charities form the Scout Movement in the United Kingdom.
HOW WE OPERATE
Executive Committee…
The County is managed by the County Executive Committee, the members of which are the Charity Trustees of the County Scout Council which is an educational charity. As charity trustees they are responsible for complying with legislation applicable to charities. This includes the registration, keeping proper accounts and making returns to the Charity Commission as appropriate.
The County Executive exists to support the County Commissioner in meeting the responsibilities of the appointment and is responsible for:
-
Promoting the development of Scouting in the County;
-
Ensuring cooperation between Districts, Groups and other organisations;
-
Raising of funds and administration of the County’s finance and property;
-
The appointments process within the County;
-
Appointing any subcommittee that may be required;
-
Ensuring sound administration within the County.
The Executive Committee comprises up to 18 members:
-
6 Ex-officio Members (including the officers);
-
4 elected members (including 1 elected youth member) elected annually by the County Scout Council at its AGM;
-
4 appointed members (annually appointed at the AGM);
-
up to 4 Co-opted members (annually appointed by the Executive).
The committee meets at least four times each year. An induction process is provided for all new Trustees. Further learning and development opportunities are available.
POR...
The Association has a comprehensive set of policies and rules applicable to the Movement, which are routinely monitored and reviewed by the Association. We are committed to providing the best possible experience for everyone in Scouting, whether they are young people or adult volunteers. To help us achieve this, we work to a number of key policies, through which we can make sure that Scouting continues to develop in a way that is safe, accessible and free from discrimination.
Our key policies include:
-
Anti-bullying policy.
-
Child protection policy.
-
Development policy.
-
Equal opportunities policy.
Risk and Internal Control…
The County has in place systems of internal control that are designed to provide reasonable insurance against material mismanagement or loss. These include 2 signatures for all payments and comprehensive insurance policies to ensure that insurable risks are covered.
Volunteers...
During the year over 3000 adults volunteered their time, energy, skills and commitment to Scouting at Group, District, or County level. Their roles ranged from regularly leading section meetings and organising camps, to helping with administration, training future leaders and attending meetings at every level. Without this contribution of our volunteers, Scouting in West Yorkshire would be unable to offer a wide range of challenging and inspiring activities that help make Scouting the largest co-educational youth movement in the UK today.
Our vision for 2023
By 2023 we will have prepared more young people with skills for life, supported by amazing leaders delivering an inspiring programme.
We will be growing more inclusive, shaped by young people and making a bigger impact in our communities.
Our goals
Our plan is to build on the success of the previous plan: to continue to grow, become more inclusive, to be shaped by young people and to make a bigger impact in our communities.

Safety policy.
Early Years Pilot Project - Hedgehogs and Squirrels
West Yorkshire has been proud to be part of the national Early Years Pilot Project with a Hedgehog section at 5th Shipley Scout Group in Airevalley. Despite the challenges that we have faced over the year, we have welcomed 8 families into our group, 7 of these being new to scouting. This has included the recruitment and socially-distanced investiture of two new young people.
As the rest of the scout group met through zoom, the Hedgehogs were too young to participate in this way however it did not stop them scouting! At the start of lockdown, we set weekly challenges that included participation in the national Care for Care Homes initiative and delivered activity programme kits for the families to engage with at a time that suited them. The Hedgehogs particularly like the bug hunts and the positive rock painting that they then hid on their daily walks for others to find! As lockdown progressed, we worked closely with HQ who created more activity kits and ran online sessions that included meeting a zoo keeper and creative story sessions. The Hedgehogs also really enjoyed joining in the virtual county events including the Virtual Big Camp and the JamBOOree!
this exciting new section. For more information or for help on expressing an interest in launching please email Dan Breeze, Assistant County Commissioner for Squirrels at squirrels@wyscouts.org. uk.
Dan Breeze
Assistant County Commissioner Squirrels
In August 2020, the national scout council reviewed the evidence collected from the Early Years Pilot Project and decided that they would launch a new section, Squirrels, starting in September 2021. Over the past year, the leadership team at 5th Shipley have worked closely with HQ to shape and develop this providing feedback and experience from the Pilot Project. As a county, we are extremely excited to be able to launch

WEST YORKSHIRE COUNTY SCOUT COUNCIL
TRUSTEES' REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
The trustees present their report and the financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2021.
West Yorkshire County Scout Council is constituted under the Policy, Organisation and Rules of the Scout Association and is a registered charity established, and with Trustees appointed, in accordance with these Rules.
Administrative details relating to the charity, including Trustees details, can be found at the beginning of this report.
West Yorkshire County Scout Council continued throughout the year to provide leadership, advice and support for Scout Districts and, through them, for Scout Groups and their local communities within its boundaries.
The Trustees have, under section 17(5) of the Charities Act 2011, paid due regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission regarding public benefit in deciding what activities to undertake. The charity and its subsidiary undertakings meets the Charity Commission’s public benefit criteria under both the advancement of education and the advancement of citizenship and community development headings.
West Yorkshire Scout County manages and administers Bradley Wood campsite and Green Withens Watersport Centre for the benefit of members and the community.
Structure, governance and management
The affairs are managed by the County Executive Committee (the Trustees) through a number of sub committees. One Trustee of the Executive should serve on each subcommittee. This year Finance, Risk, Appointments, Green Withens have operated.
The operation of the activity/training centre and campsite situated at Bradley Wood is delegated to the Board of WYS Trading Limited (company registration no. 4639375).
Review of the year
A full review of the year is published as a separate booklet.
The support of Scouting in the County created a surplus of £163,656 in the charity (2020: deficit of £84,224) after recognising donations and grants to county of £161,257. £156,716 of the surplus is funding still to be spent on specific projects as outlined in note 8.
Governance costs
The management costs of the charity and its subsidiary undertakings are considered minimal and are not reported separately since the assessment of the costs would be arbitrary. The only direct governance costs of the charity are the audit £3,270 (2020: £3,060) and County administration £nil (2020: £nil).
Reserves
Reserves are being held to ensure that the level of activity can be maintained for at least two years, without income through a policy to hold 75% of two year’s gross expenditure. This has been amended this year due to the impact of covid-19 and the Scout Association suspension of the organisation.
Future operation of the charity and its subsidiary undertakings
The Trustees are of the opinion that funds are sufficient to continue activities throughout the next year. Although income via membership levy is expected to be still slightly lower, due to the Covid -19 effect, scouting has returned, and numbers are now increasing as Scout Groups have re-commenced face to face scouting.
It is unlikely that we will see a significant income for WYS Trading before Spring 2022. To compensate the business model has been changed to be volunteer led, budgets have been cut and new approaches to income generation are being developed.
Risk management
The Executive and County team operate within the safety regulations of the Scout Association. The risks to the operation and management of the County have been assessed and kept under review and plans are in place to mitigate or eliminate the effect of potential risks.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
Statement of disclosure to auditor

WEST YORKSHIRE COUNTY SCOUT COUNCIL
STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES
The trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Report and the accounts in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
Charity law requires the trustees to prepare accounts for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that year.
In preparing these accounts, the trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and
-
prepare the accounts on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the accounts comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the Scout Association Policy, Organisation and Rules. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the charity and financial information included on the charity’s website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.

WEST YORKSHIRE COUNTY SCOUT COUNCIL
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
TO THE MEMBERS OF WEST YORKSHIRE COUNTY SCOUT COUNCIL
Opinion
We have audited the group financial statements of West Yorkshire County Scout Council and its subsidiaries for the year ended 31 March 2021, which comprise the Group and Parent Company Statement of Financial Activities, Group and Parent Company Balance Sheets and related notes including significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard FRS102 (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
In our opinion the financial statements:
-
give a true and fair view of the state of the charity and group's affairs as at 31 March 2021 and of the group's incoming resources and application of resources in the year then ended;
-
- have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom accounting standards, including FRS102; and
-
have been properly prepared in accordance with the Charities Act 2011.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the group in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the United Kingdom, including the Financial Reporting Council's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Use of our report
This report is made solely to the charity’s members, as a body, in accordance with Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 and the regulations made under Section 154 of that Act. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charity’s trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity’s members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.
Emphasis of Matter – Going concern
We draw attention to Note 15 to the financial statements which describes uncertainties resulting from Covid-19, in particular affecting the trading subsidiary company. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.
Other information
The Trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual report, other than the financial statements and our Auditors' report thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstaternent of the other information. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

WEST YORKSHIRE COUNTY SCOUT COUNCIL
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
TO THE MEMBERS OF WEST YORKSHIRE COUNTY SCOUT COUNCIL
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
In the light of our knowledge and understanding of the charity and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Trustees' report.
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Charities Act 2011 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
sufficient and adequate accounting records have not been kept; or
-
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
-
certain disclosures of Trustees' remuneration specified by law are not made; or
-
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.
Responsibilities of trustees
As is explained more fully in the Trustees’ Responsibilities Statement on page 3, the trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the Trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the Trustees are responsible for assessing the group's and the parent charity's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Trustees either intend to liquidate the group or the parent charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an Auditors' report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these finandal statements.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at www. frc.org. uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Auditors' report.

WEST YORKSHIRE COUNTY SCOUT COUNCIL
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
1 Accounting policies
1.1 Basis of preparation of the accounts
The accounts have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (effective 1 January 2019), the Financial Reporting Standard, the Charities Act 2011 and applicable regulations.
The financial statements are prepared on the historic cost basis of accounting. Both the current and comparative period cover 12 months. The accounts are prepared in £ sterling.
1.2 Income
These are included (net of VAT where applicable) in the statement of financial activities when:
-
the charity becomes entitled to the resources;
-
the trustees consider it more likely than not that the charity will receive the resources; and
-
the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability.
Membership subscriptions collected on behalf of other parts of the Scout Movement are reported in the statement of financial activities net of any amount paid out. This is because these subscriptions are just held as agent before being paid out to head quarters.
Grants and donations are included when the charity is more likely than not to receive entitlement to the resources.
Income from tax reclaims are included at the same time as the claim is made. Claims are made in a timely fashion from when the gift is received.
The value of any volunteer help received is not included in the accounts but is described in the trustees’ annual report.
Investment income is included in the accounts when receivable.
1.3 Expenditure and liabilities
Liabilities are recognised as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out resources.
Costs of generating funds comprise costs associated with attracting voluntary income. Charitable expenditure comprises these costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. Governance costs include costs of preparing and examining the statutory accounts, the cost of county administration and the cost of any legal advice to trustees on governance and constitutional
1.4 Tangible fixed assets
Fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated deprecation. The cost of additions below £2,000 and of items with a useful economic life of less than a year are not capitalised. Training, camping equipment and computers are now written off on acquisition.
Depreciation is charged on a straight-line basis: Buildings over the term of the lease (30 years) Internal fixtures and fittings at 15% per annum Plant and machinery at 25% per annum Office equipment at 25% per annum
1.5 Stocks
These are valued at the lower of cost or realisable value. Training resources are not valued.
1.6 Deferred taxation
Deferred taxation is provided in full in respect of taxation deferred by timing differences between the treatment of certain items for taxation and accounting purposes. The deferred tax balance has not been discounted.

WEST YORKSHIRE COUNTY SCOUT COUNCIL
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
10 Staff costs
No wages are paid directly by the County. A contribution of £nil (2020: £nil) is made to WYS Trading Limited for administrative work undertaken by them on behalf of the County.
No employee was paid at a rate in excess of £60,000 per annum.
11 Trustees expenses - charity
The members of the Executive Committee are not remunerated, but did receive reimbursement of expenses in connection with other responsibilities in the County amounting to £165 (2020: £2,545).
12 Auditor's remuneration
Remuneration for the audit, including fees paid for accountancy and payroll services to the auditor, is £6,741, (2020: £7,363).
13 Lease commitments - charity
Bradley Wood
Lease of 40 years from 1 January 1992 at a rent of £1 per annum (if demanded). Lease updates are in progress which will extend the lease term by a further 25 years.
To date no rent has been demanded.
14 Related parties
Other than expenses directly reimbursed to members of the Executive as disclosed above, transactions may have taken place with other bodies within the Scout Movement of which members of the Executive are also trustees. No specific disclosure of these is made since no individual member is in a position of having control of any of the bodies or in receipt of any personal benefit.
A wholly controlled trading subsidiary, WYS Trading Ltd manages Bradley Wood on behalf of the County. Accommodation/room hire charges of £862 (2020: £12,237) were paid to this company in addition to the contribution for administrative support of £nil (2020: £nil).
15 Going concern and post balance sheet events
The Trustees are of the opinion that funds are sufficient to continue activities for 12 months from the approval date, and hence the accounts have been prepared on a going concern basis. Income via membership levy is expected to be higher this year as scouting has now returned. Detailed budgets have been set to control expenditure and will be closely monitored as per ongoing governance.
As set out in note 5, the charity have agreed not to seek repayment of their loan to WYS Trading Limited (the trading subsidiary company), to the extent that this would leave WYS Trading Limited unable to settle its third party debts. This support has been budgeted for as part of the going concern assessment made by the charity's trustees.
It is unlikely that we will see a significant income for WYS Trading Limited (the trading subsidiary company - see note 5 for information) before Spring 2022, as the activity centre was closed for several months as a result of Covid-19 restrictions, however bookings are now returning. The business model has been changed to be more volunteer led, budgets have been cut and new approaches to income generation are being developed.
