By understanding the needs of our local communities we can ensure Scouting is

something everyone can enjoy, says Laura McManus

Two of the key policies of The Scout Association state that Scouting should

be open to all young people and adults who wish to join. As a manager in

Scouting it is part of your role to uphold the key policies, and in this issue we will

look at the advantages of implementing those on equal opportunities and

religion.

Building in the changesThe Scout Group where I am a Beaver Scout Leader is lucky enough to own its

property, and a few years ago we were able to make the building fully

accessible. This meant that we could say yes to a Beaver Scout joining who has

multiple disabilities. We wouldn’t have been able to do this if we hadn’t taken

the time to look around the building and make the necessary changes. Turn to

page eight to find out how you can do the same.

Making the census countWe also look at the 2011 Census (page six), examining the reasons behind the

change of format, including interviews with one Group Scout Leader who used

different methods to collect the data. Collecting this more detailed information

will let us know if Scouting is reflecting local communities.

County: Although in some parts of the British Isles Scout Counties are known as Areas or Islands – and in one case Bailiwick – for ease of reading this publication simply refers to County/Counties. In Scotland there is no direct equivalent to County or Area. In Scotland, Scouting is organised into Districts and Regions, each with distinct responsibilities. Some ‘County’ functions are the responsibility of Scottish Regions, whilst others lie with Scottish Districts. The focus of responsibility is outlined in Scottish variations from POR.

News and viewsThe latest news for managers in Scouting

New online support for managersA new area within the Member Resources section of www.scouts.org.uk has been created to help you in your Scouting role.

Go to www.scouts.org.uk/managers to get easy access to a wide range of resources to help you with the challenging aspects of your role, from carrying out reviews and dealing with disputes to recruiting new volunteers.

The information is for Group Scout Leaders, District Commissioners and County/Area Commissioners/Regional Commissioners (Scotland). It is based on requests for specific advice and support from managers.

We are always looking for new ideas about good leadership and management in Scouting so please email us at [email protected] to share yours. This support and advice is based on feedback from you.

We can also offer support to managers face-to-face. Do get in touch if you think your County/Area/Region would benefit from having a speaker from Headquarters to help your managers understand the managerial aspects of their role more clearly, answer questions and introduce the content on the managers’ area of Member resources.

We look forward to hearing your thoughts on how we can develop the managers’ area further, and hope it is of use in your role.

Do you have a celebrity next door? Our National Scouting Ambassadors work hard to promote Scouting to the wide variety of people they know. We also call on them to help us get the general public interested in Scouting, both young people and potential volunteers.

There are ways everyone can use Ambassadors to help at a regional level. You may not realise it, but someone local to you with a high profile might be perfect to support Scouting in your area. If you think you know someone or would like to learn more please contact Beth Gooch, Leader of Ambassador and Luminary Relationships at [email protected]

An apology In an article published in the June/July Focus supplement (page 11, ‘AGM = A Good Meeting’) some of the information was incorrect. Advice on running an executive meeting was included by mistake.

We are keen to share correct information and support about how to run both an AGM and an executive committee meeting, and this can be found within the resource A Guide for The Group Chairman, available from www.scouts.org.uk/infocentre

If you have any questions on running an AGM or executive meeting contact the Information Centre on 0845 300 1818.

Community Scout Week pilot a hit

The first Community Scout Week trial event was a great

success, with Scout Groups performing tasks to improve

their local areas and the lives of those who live there.

They also fundraised for their Groups and used it to raise

awareness of Scouting in their community.

Gardening, building bird boxes, painting buildings and litter

picking were just some of the projects carried out by the eight

Scout Groups who took part in May’s pilot. All agreed that it

had been a positive experience. Funds were raised for Scouting

and new volunteers recruited. They also provided us with some

feedback that will be used to help develop the project into a

national initiative. The next Community Scout Week is planned

for 2012.

Find out how to get involved by emailing the Fundraising

Team at [email protected]

Has your Group, District or County had a Big Adventure?

The Big Adventure ends on 31 August. If you have taken part we’d like to hear how it went.

District Commissioner Sharn Race’s Bradford Big Adventure is just one that has taken place this year. She saw the Big Adventure as a perfect fit for the District Camp: ‘We wanted a camp that would excite our young people, enthuse our leadership team and encourage parents to participate in Scouting. The parents helped assist on the activities, which was fantastic as it freed up trained leaders to actually run them. Five parents helped in the kitchen. All parents had a fantastic time and I have received positive feedback both during and after the camp.

‘The Big Adventure is a fantastic tool. I am thrilled at the outcome from our Big Adventure; I hope that you will be too.’

Making Census

This year the diversity questions in our Scouting Census were slightly different, and asked for fuller information than in previous years. Sheridan Allman, Technical Adviser (Diversity), explains why the additional information is so valuable


7scouts.org.uk

Census

In the October/November 2010 Focus supplement, I drew your attention to the

upcoming changes in the census, and in

particular the business of gathering information

on ethnicity and disability. So at a number of events

earlier this year, I took the opportunity of asking some

District Commissioners and Group Scout Leaders how

they felt the census exercise had gone.

Inevitably there was some robust discussion, with

some people feeling uncomfortable or puzzled as to

why we needed to gather this information. Other

suggestions were made about improvements in the

process. Overall, the feedback in these discussions was

positive, but this is a good time to remind ourselves of

why we need this information, and how we can use it

to improve and develop Scouting.

Two of our objectives as an organisation are to

reflect the communities that we serve, and to make

Scouting available to as many young people as want to

join us.

Some examples of under-represented groups might

be those from socially-disadvantaged areas of the UK

(both rural and urban), young carers, people from a

variety of faith communities, the Black African and

African-Caribbean communities, or the newer

immigrant populations from Eastern Europe.

By comparing our extended census data with

national statistics we can now start to look at where

the opportunities are for recruitment across different

kinds of communities – to help us target our efforts.

Special needs A lot of good progress has been made in welcoming

young people and adults with special needs into our

Groups. However, we also realise that we would be

able to provide more focused training and appropriate

resourcing if we had a more informed view. Census

data can give us more information about the variety of

challenges/disabilities that we are dealing with, and the

confidence levels of our leaders in providing a suitable

programme and activities.

Standard practiceOne particular issue that some Group Scout Leaders

reported was discomfort about asking parents more

detailed questions. It’s important to remember that

most parents do recognise that forms with these sorts

of questions are standard practice in schools and

health centres etc, and therefore the Association is

merely reflecting societal norms in 2011.

Looking to the futureNext January, the census will be asking the same

questions with respect to ethnicity and disabilities, and

hopefully leaders will become gradually more aware of

the positive reasons behind these questions, and more

comfortable explaining these to parents.

Find out more at www.scouts.org.uk/census

One Group Scout Leader who had a positive experience with the new Census questions was Angela Harwood, of 1st Denmead Scout Group‘To obtain the information for the census this year, I emailed all the parents in my Group asking them for the information. I explained why it was needed, and gave them a copy of the explanatory notes. Everyone seemed happy to respond.

‘The information regarding disabilities was useful to us, as parents do not always realise that it helps us as leaders to support their children. If we better understand the potential challenges, we will be better equipped to deal with them.’

Since 2007 we have been successful in growing the Movement, but we know that there are still communities that are not part of our Scouting population.



Planning permissionsHelp even more people enjoy Scouting by carrying out a simple accessibility audit of your Scout buildings. Rex Stevens and Peter Hills explain

A key part of making Scouting open to

everyone is examining accessibility to

activities. Under the Disability Discrimination

Act 1995, all buildings used for providing a

service to the public (including Scout buildings) are under a

duty to make reasonable adjustments to ensure proper

disabled access to their premises by carrying out regular

checks and balances.

One very easy way to set about improving this is by

carrying out an accessibility audit, using the questionnaire

available from the Accessible Scouting pages in the

Member Resources section of www.scouts.org.uk

The audit isn’t a particularly long or complicated task,

with most questions requiring a simple yes or no answer.

The whole process shouldn’t take more than about 20

minutes, and an ideal time to carry it out would be during,

or after, a Group Executive or Leaders’ meeting.

Once you’ve carried out the audit, the next step

depends on who actually owns the buildings where

you meet.

If your meeting place is owned by ScoutingThere are lots of inexpensive things that you can do

straight away to improve access to your buildings. For

more substantial improvements, the Group can put

together a plan for future works to be carried out,

including any necessary fundraising.

You might also realise you are eligible for funding to

help improve your premises. There are a number of grants

available from The Scout Association through the

Development Grants Board. While these are

understandably restricted, it’s worth looking at

www.scouts.org.uk/dgb to see if you qualify.

If your meeting place is owned by someone elseIf you hire your premises, for example a church hall or a

school building, then you just need to complete the audit

and give a copy of it to whoever is responsible for the

building. Simply dropping the form through their letterbox

'For some young people and potential volunteers with disabilities, the obstacle may be that they can’t physically enter or use the facilities in their local Scout building.'


9scouts.org.uk

Accessibility

Some easy ways to improve accessibility• Put stickers on glass doors to ensure that

visually-impaired people can see them.• Mark the edges of steps with brightly-

coloured tape to make them easy to see.• Make a sign to designate a disabled

parking bay.

Getting help from the Development Grants BoardOne example of funding available from

The Scout Association’s Development

Grants Board is the Special Needs Fund

(formerly known as the Treloar Fund). This

is used to assist individual Scouts with

disabilities, and for the general

development of Scouting for those with

special needs.

As part of more extensive building

works at their building, the 1st Norwich

Sea Scout Group decided that installing a

disabled lift on the quay would help them

to provide better access to the water.

According to Assistant Group Scout

Leader Charles Bartram, ‘Another Group

based nearby who do not have their own

outside facilities, but that support Scouts

with special needs, had shown interest in

using the facilities, so full accessibility was

a major consideration and a lift on the

quay an obvious requirement.’

The Group themselves did a lot of

fundraising, but they were also awarded a

grant from the Special Needs Fund to help

them, and the work was completed in

March of this year.

Getting help Case study:

attached might not be the best way, so why not invite

them along to join you as you complete the form?

Need more advice?If you’ve got any questions about making your Scout

buildings more accessible, our Diversity Team will be

happy to provide you with any information and advice.

Chews Flash:

New Scout Group for Somerset

'The young people started the afternoon of fun with amusing sketches to entertain the guests.'

There's smiles all around at the launch of the new 1st Chew Stoke Scout Group. Jean Marshall, Regional Development Officer, tells us how it all began

On 26 March 2011, at Chew Stoke Village

Primary School over 150 people attended the

opening of the 1st Chew Stoke Scout Group.

Everyone had a smile on their face, not least

the 50+ young people and nine adults, who all made their

promise to officially become members of The Scout

Association.

The newly formed Executive Committee, made up of

parents who are new to Scouting, were there and ensured

everyone had tea and cake to aid the celebrations. The

young people started the afternoon of fun with amusing

sketches to entertain the guests. By the end of the

afternoon a local businessman had volunteered to sponsor

the Cub flag, and by the end of the weekend the parish

council had contacted the Group Secretary to offer

sponsorship for another section flag.

Neil Salter, the County Commissioner for Avon Scouts

was pleased with the launch: 'It is great to welcome 1st

Chew Stoke into the Scout family where they join 31

million Scouts from around the world. Scouting will give

these young people countless opportunities to develop

their life skills by taking part in many varied activities and

providing the fun and adventure that they seek.'

Seven months to make a differenceIt took just seven months to open the new Scout Group

and the project was supported by Wansdyke Scout District

Team and the South West Regional Development Service.

Janet Turner, District Commissioner for Wansdyke, knew

that there was a demand for Scouting in the Chew Valley

area because the number of enquiries from local families

about joining Scouting was increasing.

Janet contacted the South West Regional Development

Service (SWRDS) to ask if they could support the District to

open a Group in Chew Stoke. The District Team, together

with the SWRDS, held an open day in Chew Stoke for the

local community and for people from the surrounding

villages. The day was promoted through the parish

magazine, local businesses and primary schools. Over 46

families attended to have a go at the free activities and to

find out more about Scouting. Before long, over 90 young

people and over 45 adults had expressed an interest in

joining and helping out.

Turning interest into volunteering In the following weeks, the adults who showed an interest

in helping were contacted and meetings arranged.

Members of the District team, volunteers from other

Groups within the District and the SWRDS talked with

them about volunteering in practice.

From these meetings and discussions there was enough

adult support to open Beavers, Cubs and Scouts and form

an Executive Committee. With support from other

experienced leaders from across the District the first

meetings for Beavers, Cubs and Scouts took place

in the following weeks.

Nick Sealy, Beaver Scout Leader, was one of the first

onboard: ‘As a new leader, it’s been a great pleasure to

help get our Scout Group off the ground and to see the

Beavers settle into having some serious fun. We’ve got a

really enthusiastic leadership team and because there are

seven of us, we can be flexible around each other’s work

and family commitments. There’s plenty of support and

training on offer to parents who think they’d like to be

involved. And there’s nothing like watching your son and

his friends have their first go at abseiling, aged six.’



The right partners

Partnerships can be great for Scouting, says The

Association’s Assistant Director of Fundraising and

Marketing, Jenni Anderson, but you do need to

think carefully before signing on the dotted line

S couting’s brand is highly respected locally and

nationally. Delivering fun, challenge and

adventure while making a positive impact in our

communities, we are seen as ethical, trusted and

a ‘force for good’. This makes Scouting’s brand, and

therefore any association with Scouting, very valuable

to businesses and other charities.

Why partner with Scouting? Companies, charities and organisations are always looking

for ways to:

• access and influence new groups of adults and young

people to raise money, buy, use, promote or endorse

their services

• associate themselves with highly respected

organisations to help build up trust in their service

or product.

Often these approaches are well meaning. Companies will

often offer discounts, special offers and access to their

facilities to help support projects in their local area.

Sometimes, these offers come with a ‘no strings’

commitment – they are not looking for a return or public

recognition for their contribution. On other occasions, they

will want some sort of return. This could be in the form of:

• a local Scout logo on their website or corporate

literature

• access to local mailing lists

• a presence at local events

• access to Scouts themselves to make presentations

and gain support for their activities

• company or charity logos on local Scouting literature

• support with local PR or media work (using Scouts

in photo calls, and so on).

Who benefits most? In these situations, it can sometimes be hard to tell if you

are getting value for money. Often the benefit for the

company is far greater than it is for Scouting. Always try to

identify the value and return to Scouting before entering

into a partnership, this could include:

• cash (eg sponsorship)

• ‘value in kind’ goods or services (eg a new kitchen

or the labour to fit it out)

• royalties – a percentage of income from tickets or

products sold via members

Ask yourself, is the company asking for you to provide

more than the value (in time or money) that they are

giving to you?

Should it be a national partnership?If you are working with a business which could offer

additional benefit to Scouting in other areas, then get in

contact with a member of the fundraising team at Gilwell

Park – [email protected] or call us

on 020 8433 7100.

Partnerships

'Scouting’s brand, and therefore any association with Scouting [is] very valuable to businesses and other charities.'

The dos and don’ts of partnershipsDO

Respect our brands and logos • Scouting logos, badges and other trademarks are the

property of The Scout Association. They cannot be

assigned locally without permission of UK Headquarters

(see POR 14.7 and 14.8). If you form a partnership it

must be clear that it is a local initiative

Use your local logo, not the national logo • You may assign your local logo but again, consider the

advice to ensure you are getting a ‘fair deal’ – many

Districts or Groups do not ask for money.

Think carefully before creating a badge • If a corporation or business requests you create an

occasional badge to publicise a specific product or

scheme, think through the educational and financial

benefits of this to your Group, District or County. Please

refer to POR 10.33 – which allows the creation of

occasional badges with County Commissioner approval.

Approach regional offices only • Regional offices or branches of national businesses can

be approached without consulting Headquarters, but

please do contact us for advice to ensure you get the

‘best deal’.

Respect other people’s brands • Make sure you have written permission to use partners’

brand trademarks

DON’T Approach head offices • Please avoid forming a local partnership with the head

office of a national company or organisation. If you are

approached by a national company please contact the

fundraising team.

Form partnerships outside your area • A County/Area/District/Group should not make an

approach to organisations outside their local boundary,

except where the organisation states specifically that

they support work within that County/Area/District/

Group. You should not offer activity or promotion to

a company or business outside of your local boundary.

On the moveAs volunteer managers we need to adapt to our ever-changing world and ensure Scouting moves forward with it, says Tim Kidd

Sometimes the best way to go backwards is simply

to stay still. Founder Baden-Powell intentionally

recognised Scouting as a ‘movement’ – he saw it

as a living entity that in order to grow must adapt

and change.

The truth is that we live in a fast-changing world. If we

are to make Scouting attractive to young people and (of

course) as easy as possible for volunteers to provide, then

we must be prepared to do things differently and keep it

feeling fresh. This is a tall order sometimes.

We don’t always react well to change; it can be

unsettling and take time to make the change work. But

the beauty of Scouting is that we can use the power of

many people to change and improve it. To do this we have

to be brave.

Why good management mattersThis skill of looking for, encouraging and acting on ideas

for change is one of the key skills that we expect of a

good manager in Scouting. There are six key skills areas in

total and these are explored together with some practical

resources on a new part of the website, which you will

find at www.scouts.org.uk/managers. You will also find

resources to help you carry out your role effectively.

(see page 4 for more details).

In this issue we look at how you might change your

Scouting in a number of ways to offer the adventure

to even more young people. So take the plunge and

see what you can do.
