1ST WHITTLESFORD AND DUXFORD SCOUT GROUP

As Scouts, we believe in preparing young people with skills for life. We encourage children from 6 to 14 years to do more, learn more and be more. Each week the 1st Whittlesford & Duxford Scout Group gives young people of Whittlesford, Duxford, Ickleton, Hinxton and Thriplow villages in Cambridgeshire the opportunity to enjoy fun and adventure while developing the skills they need to succeed.

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:

Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Income has been volatile recently
