    2ND MARKET DRAYTON SCOUT GROUP 

    Scout Group for children between 6 years and 18 years
    Analysis by Giving is Great

    Positives:

    • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
    • There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
    • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

    Financial issues to consider:

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