Thank you to everyone who helped in completing their census on time.
All groups are (as expected) down in numbers this year, with an average fall of 23%. The only exception is 11th Gravesend which was re-opened last year and thus managed to grow as a group – well done! As well as 11th Beavers, seven sections have grown this year and none have closed.
The census this year asked some extra questions – and it reveals that 45% of sections managed some face-to-face and another 20% managed digital-only activities, so two-thirds of sections have managed to scout during COVID.
Treasurer’s and GSL’s should have details of Annual Membership Subscription bills payable by 22nd March.
