There are a large number of expenses involved in running a Scout Group such as ours, insurance, energy, repairs, maintenance to the hall, vehicles and our campsite, and capitation which is a charge per member that is levied upon us by the Scout Association, over which we have no control. In fact the only thing that is free is the time given by the leaders and helpers!

In order to fund these expenses we need to make a charge for membership of the Group, this has been set by the Executive at a level of £25 per term irrespective of which section the young person is in. We also make an annual charge of £10 towards the hall running costs. The remainder is raised by the activities of our Supporter Group who run fund raising events.

Subscriptions are due within the first three weeks of each Term, and the Hall Fee is payable at the commencement of the Calendar Year. These are payable by Cash, Cheque or by means of Electronic Transfer, details of which are provided in the Term Bill.

The executive realise that there are some families that have more than one child in the Group and second and subsequent children are charged at £15 per term, there is no relief from the hall charge.
