DORSET COUNTY SCOUT COUNCIL

The training of young people. Mission statement:Scouting actively engages and supports young people in their personal development, empowering them to make a positive contribution to society.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

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
