10TH HARPENDEN (METHODIST) SCOUT GROUP 

The charity provides activities on a weekly basis to children (both boys and girls) from the ages of 6 up to 14 following guidelines set down by the Scout Association. In 2008 the Scout Hut was replaced by a purpose built building with state of the art equipment with help from other charities and beneficiaries.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • The Board is predominantly male

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
