Subs

Due to the recent rent increase and capitation fee, we are having to increase the subs to £60 .00 per term commencing from April, if we could have kept it the same, we would have but most of the sub’s goes on the rental and capitation each year, leaving little for anything else.

Fundraising

The Scouts will be running a Tombola stall at “Picnic at Frith” in June, that’s being organised by Barnet Scouts, for their trip to the Essex Jamboree 

We have some stuff already but are looking for more donations.

 

Fundraising is our main income besides the subs (which pays for the hire of the centre on a Monday evening and Capitation), to hire the centre on a different night its £43.00 per hour, I cannot stress how important fundraising to our group
