1ST KNEBWORTH-EARL OF LYTTON'S OWN- SCOUT GROUP 

Knebworth Scout & Guide Group is part of the wider Scout and Guide Association, which is concerned for young people. It aims to encourage their physical, mental and spiritual development, so they may take a constructive place in society. This is achieved by providing an enjoyable and attractive scheme of progressive training, guided by voluntary adult leadership.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • There are 16 trustees whereas the Charities Commission recommends a maximum of 12

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period but has stabilised more recently
