The 32nd Swansea Scout Group Executive Committee plays a vital role in the running of the Group. The Executive Committee makes decisions and carries out administrative tasks to ensure that the best quality Scouting can be delivered to young people in the Group.
What do we do?
The Executive Committee has several responsibilities which include:
- Maintaining the Scout Hut
- Providing equipment for the Scout Group
- Ensuring that the Scout Group is suitable insured
- Raising funds for the Group
- Administering the Scout Group’s finances
- Assisting in the recruitment of leaders
- Organising social events
As the 32nd Swansea Scout Group is a charity, all members of the Executive Committee are Trustees of the charity.
