GROUP INFO

The subscriptions that you pay to your child’s section are used for:

·        Running costs for the section, including books, badges etc

·        Capitation fees paid each January to Scout Headquarters

·        Small levy to cover District activities

·        Annual rent for the Halls

This money does not cover essential expenditure such as:

 #   Purchase of essential group equipment

  #   Funding for extra activities

Additional funds must be raised by the group to meet these costs. The Executive Committee organise a number of fundraising events throughout the year.  The money raised is essential for the upkeep of the  extra activities and the general running of the group so please support us whenever you can  and do let us know if you have any great fundraising ideas.

                                              KEEPING IN TOUCH

It is essential that we have an up to date e-mail address for each child.  This should be that of a parent/guardian and not the child and will be used to communicate essential information about the group’s activities only.  This will be the only form of communication between the Scout Group and individuals, so if we do not have an address you may miss out on valuable information.  Please make sure that your section leader has your e-mail address , and is kept up to date with any changes.

 

                                DATA PROTECTION

Any information held by the Scout Group sections, such as details of name, address and contact details, will only be used in connection with the Scout Group and will not be passed to third parties without your consent.  You may ask to see the information that we hold.

 

You can be involved in the running of the group by:

·        Joining the Executive Committee

 

·        Helping at fundraising events

 

·        Becoming a leader/helper for any of the sections.

 

Contact the Group Scout Leader if you would be able to help out.
