Subscriptions cover Scout administration at national and county level as well as providing the Group vital funds to ensure that we have well trained leaders with good facilities and great opportunities for our members. Approximately 1/3 of the annual subscriptions are paid to the national body to cover insurance payments.
The subscription for all members is £4 per week; this is paid via Online Scout Manager every term. No subs are paid until the young person is invested.
All UK tax-payers are encouraged to complete a Gift Aid form. This doesn’t cost you anything but allows us to claim a significant tax rebate from HMRC on any payments you make to us. This allows us to offer more and reduces our need to fundraise to carry out our activities.
As a Group we are determined to offer quality scouting to all. If parents find themselves in financial difficulty the Group does operate a small welfare fund to support young peoples’ attendance, camp fees or uniform support. If we are unable to help we can offer support to families to secure funding from other sources for those who are eligible.
Additional activity and camp fees are also charged but the Group endeavours to keep costs as low as possible.
