1ST HERRINGTON BOY SCOUT GROUP

Scouting Activities for 6-7 years old; 8-10.5 years old; 10-14 years old. Older children join an Explorer Group, but work with us on "Young Leader" skills.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been 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

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
Income has been volatile recently and was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
