CRAI DISTRICT SCOUT COUNCIL

The merger of the three District Scout Councils of Caerphilly, Rhymney Valley and Islwyn was completed smoothly and the new CRAI District Scout Council continues to grow in Membership. The change of District Commissioner had no effect on the smooth running. The Council's may objectives to promote Scouting and the support to individal Scout Groups has been maintained and enhanced.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
The charity has received Government grants
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
There has been a change of accounting period recently, so trends may be hard to determine
Income has been volatile recently but spending has been maintained
