1ST SUTTONS SCOUT GROUP 

We are a scout group that provides adventurous activities and personal development opportunities for young people aged between 6 & 14 years old from Sutton Valence, Chart Sutton, East Sutton and the surrounding villages. In scouting we believe that young people develop most when they are learning by doing, when they are given responsibility and work in teams, making friends and getting outdoors.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests 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
  • Accounts have been filed late on 5 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
