Focus on GLSW

Scouting in Greater London South West October 2005

County Commissioner’s Message

Welcome back after the summer break and I hope that everyone had a restful time and enjoyable expeditions and camps. Those who participated in EuroJam certainly did.

Nigel Steward and I recently attended the Scout Association’s AGM at Regents College, London and we were treated to a visual presentation of EuroJam. The whole event looked spectacular with so much obvious enjoyment from all the young people. I also understand that the 22nd Wimbledon contingent had a special guest to dinner – the Chief Scout, Peter Duncan.

If the experience of EuroJam is anything to go by then the Jamboree in 2007 is going to be some event. County will be sending at least one contingent, hopefully two, and we will be needing leaders to take our young members. So if you are interested and think you’ve got what it takes to either lead or be an assistant leader to 36 members at a world Scouting event, lets hear from you and apply now. The selection process will be starting soon.

Also at the national AGM, we were asked to focus currently on three areas to improve Scouting further. CELEBRATION, RECOGNITION & GROWTH. There will be further information and support materials about these areas soon from H.Q. But what we need to do is:-

CELEBRATION

Celebrate what we do and achieve (and we do achieve a lot in GLSW very well) with our leaders, members and others and have fun whilst we are doing it.

REGOGNITION

Make sure that Scouting is recognised both locally and nationally for what it achieves and provides for others and making others want to “Join the Adventure”. If you like, “raising the profile of Scouting” because there are still plenty of people out there, adults and youngsters who don’t know what we are about and if they did, could join in the fun too.

GROWTH

Not something really new, we all know that Scouting needs to grow. Last year as a County we did increase our membership. We need to keep the impetus going forward, concentrating on adult recruitment so that in turn we have more leaders to provide for more youngsters in the movement. Next years census will soon be upon us and I hope we are all taking steps to make sure that we have sustained growth. Do all Districts have their DART teams in place, up and running, I wonder?

On other matters within GLSW it is time say welcome to Jane Hampton (ACC Beavers), Caroline Gates (ACC Cubs) and Steve Miles who takes over as DC of Richmond-upon-Thames. Our best wishes and thank you for taking up these new roles.

Sadly, we also have had to say goodbye to two long serving members of GLSW. Jenny Ririe (ACC Beavers and Cubs) and Stephen Clark (DCC International and Fellowship). Jenny’s is not really a goodbye as she does intend to keep in touch and involved, but Stephen is emigrating to Australia and soon to be married. Stephen has done much to build up the international side of things in GLSW over the years and has always been willing to combine his role with other areas when asked. Stephen will be missed but he goes with our best wishes for him and his future wife and their new life together in Australia.

Enjoy your Scouting, best wishes, Roger

Chairman’s Notes

What does Bethesda mean to you as a GLSW Leader? Perhaps I can explain. It is a village in North Wales where our County Activity Base named Yr Hen Neuadd (The Old Hall) is situated. It has been developed and funded by your County over many years to provide a wide range of activities at an affordable cost. The Base has accommodation comprising thirty bunks which have had new mattresses supplied this month at a cost of £2000. Will you be one of the first to sleep in such luxury?! Seriously, all details, including how to make a booking, are on our web site:

www.glswscouts.org.uk/bethesda

Your County Executive have given a commitment to continue the funding of Bethesda so please consider using it when planning your programme. The fees are set to cover only the running costs and it offers a wide range of outdoor activities. My sincere thanks go out to the loyal band of volunteers, led by Norman James, who maintain the base. I have visited Bethesda and know you won’t be disappointed.

Hallam Carter-Pegg (Finance Sub-committee Chairman) and I attended a National Workshop at BP House in June which covered a variety of subjects. It was interesting to hear that the vision of the Scout Movement in the run up to 2012 included:

• No new initiatives
• Priority for the recruitment and retention of adult leaders (the majority of new leaders leave after six months – after that the average length of service is seventeen years).

The subjects included:

• The responsibility of Charity Trustees
• Recruiting Trustees and their roles
• SORP 2005 provisions. (Are you up to date? If not please contact Hallam for an explanation)
• Gift Aid (Please remember that the following are excluded – Camp and Jamboree fees, uniform and equipment purchases)
• Marketing – (The new signs “Join the adventure” are free if you go and collect them from Gilwell. Postage of £5.65 must be paid if you want them sent.)

All the information on the above can be obtained from www.scoutbase.org.uk or info.centre@scout.org.uk. You can also ring 0845 300 1818.

Details of the Charity Commission can be obtained from the web site www.charitycommission.gov.uk or by phoning 08703 330 123.

A CD-ROM of the Executive workshops presentations can be obtained from the resource centre.

Tony Edwards

Newly appointed DC for Richmond upon Thames

I joined 1st Kingston Hill, Norman pack in 1967, and stayed within the Group for the next 10 years. Although not the most exemplary member with regard to uniform and badge work, I was to be found at the forefront when it came to the other activities. If there was an element of adventure, a chance to get muddy or wet then I would be there and loving every minute. For my teenage years 1st Kingston Hill or Polyapes were second homes. I enjoyed full-on Scouting under the Howard leadership team until 1978, at which point the memory becomes a bit murky as life as a Venture took hold. In 1982 Deborah and I were married and living in Whitton, although we continued for a few years to participate in Scout life, it all had to stop when our own little charges came along.

In 1995 our son Ben joined a local Beaver Colony and I signed up to give occasional assistance. Not long after, I fell victim to the skilful recruitment techniques of Phil Hunt, GSL of 3rd Whitton, initially only to be on the Group Exec. However, the meetings were cleverly held in the stores, where the air was thick with the familiar smells of camp life. It was then very hard to resist a further invitation to don a uniform and run the Scout Troop. With the integration of girls into the membership, Joanna and Michelle – our twin daughters – began their Scouting life. Taking advantage of local resources, the Troop was involved with all the District activities, and so it was that I became involved with the organisation of some of those events and a regular attendee of the DSL’s council. The merger of Richmond and Twickenham Districts created an opening for ADC Scouts and although uncertain that I was qualified to take on the position, I dived in, with a view to ‘doing my best’. Guidance from District and County teams has been invaluable, as has the assistance of the many new friends I have made within the District membership.

When it became apparent that Robin Corti was to be allowed to escape another extended term as DC, a number of Scouting colleagues suggested that I should apply for the post. Presuming it to be their usual wry humour, I dismissed the idea. I now hope that they were being serious, and that the offer of the appointment is not as big a surprise to them as it was to me.

With the Centenary celebrations just around the corner, and the new County strategy for growth, this is an exciting time to be a part of this great movement. Robin has always striven to keep the District moving forward whilst maintaining a good measure of long standing traditions; it’s my intention to continue this sensible formula and to ‘do my best’ to justify the trust that has been afforded me.

GLSW Nights Away Award

The HQ Nights Away Award has been with us for some time and has proved to be successful within the county. But there have been several comments that the highest award available (50 nights) is not high enough to adequately recognise the achievements of some of our young members, particularly in the Scout and Explorer Scout sections.

So, with that in mind, we are pleased to announce the introduction of the GLSW 75 and GLSW 100 Nights Away Awards. The 75 Nights Away takes the form of a badge and the 100 Nights a leather woggle.

These are available at absolutely no charge – all we ask is that you provide us with the names of the recipients and the time and place of your section meeting. Ian

Newbery (ACC Explorer Scouts) or Mark Patrick (ACC Scouts) will make every effort to come along and present these awards to the individual concerned, or if that is not possible will pass to your ADC to do on our behalf.

All requests should be sent to Ian or Mark (as appropriate) by e-mail: ian.newbery@glswscouts.org.uk or mark.patrick@glswscouts.org.uk.

Alternatively simply fill in the application form on line at: www.glswscouts.org.uk

First Response Training

Who needs it?

All warranted leaders; it is a requirement of warrant renewal that the leader holds a current First Response certificate or equivalent.

How do you find out where a course is available?

Contact your Local Training Manager

What training is accepted?

Almost all recognised First Aid training is accepted. Other externally awarded First Aid qualifications based on the four points noted below will be considered as equivalent or greater to first Response and will satisfy the requirements for the award of a Wood Badge or Warrant renewal.

Equivalent qualifications must be:

• Set by a reputable body such as NYA, BCU, St John Ambulance, HSE etc.
• Involve at least six hours of training
• Cover the main areas of the First Response syllabus
• Delivered by an adult holding a full First Aid qualification

For more details see HQ Factsheet FS310547.

What does GLSW provide?

Janet Drinkall is the County Leader in charge of First Aid provision. Roger and Janet are shortly to go on a course to become First Aid trainers. County will then be able to provide courses ‘in house’. Details will then be made available through Local Training Managers and published in Focus

Can a District or Group arrange a course for itself?

Yes they can, provided the criteria in the HQ Factsheet set out above, are met.

How can we use other qualified people?

A course can be run by a suitable qualified person following the Scout course requirements, PROVIDED the course is registered with, and approved by, Janet Drinkall.

Our normal Fellowship contributor, Les Ling, has been indisposed for the last few weeks and apologises for the lack of news. Hopefully normal service will resume for our December edition.

Adult Recruitment

As part of the County Development Projects remit to support adult recruitment we’re looking for events which could provide a suitable platform to promote adult recruitment across the county.

If there is an annual fete or show in your local park or anywhere within your District we would like to know about it. We need the name of the event, full contact details for the organisers, and approximate dates the event runs on.

We will then liaise with the organisers and your District Development Team or ADC (Development) etc. to support and help run stands and bases at these events promoting adult recruitment for Scouting across the whole of your District and within GLSW.

Please don’t assume somebody else will tell us, we’d rather get six e-mails about the same event than none at all. Look forward to hearing from you!

Jo Launchbury Assistant County Commissioner (Development)

Scout Headquarters Accessibility

Are you taking ‘reasonable steps’ to make your headquarters accessible to special needs youngsters? The Disability Discrimination Act which requires premises and organisations to make provisions to allow access to everyone came into being in October 2004.

Sue Burton wrote an article in the February/March issue of Scouting magazine, and there is a fact sheet available from the Information Centre code FS270002. Scout H.Q. also have an Accessibility Audit form which you may find useful.

Group Scout Leaders and Group Executives should assess the building they own and identify what needs to be undertaken to enable full and open access. Some things may be able to be fixed quickly but other building works may need budgeting for, and/or grants applied for to help with costs.

If your Group is able to give a scouting experience to special needs youngsters you will find it most rewarding.

Nights Away Permit Scheme – Your Views Sought

The Nights Away Permit Scheme (NAPS) that was first introduced in 2003 has now been operational in every County and Area since September 2004. The scheme removed a number of obstacles that Leaders previously had to overcome when leading Nights Away Events, while at the same time ensuring that only those with the skills and experience to ensure the safety and well being of the young people could run such an event. H.Q. are now seeking the views of every member of the movement on how successfully this has been implemented and whether there is anything they would like to see changed in the scheme to make it any easier or more effective to use. Therefore if you have had any dealings with NAPS, from getting a permit to working as a Nights Away Adviser, now is the time to make your thoughts known!

Use the questions below as a prompt.

• What is your Scouting role(s)?
• Which Scout County are you in?
• Do you hold a Nights Away Permit, and if so what type / restrictions?
• What do you believe are the most beneficial elements of NAPS?
• Do you believe that NAPS is working well in your District, and why is this?
• What do you think of the resources available to support NAPS?
• Which, if any, parts of NAPS do you believe you or your colleagues find confusing?
• What, if any, problems have you encountered with NAPS?
• Do you have any recommendations for ways in which the NAPS could be improved?

All replies should be sent to activities@scout.org.uk or Activities Office, Gilwell Park, Chingford, London E4 7QW, by 31st October 2005.

Ian Newbery Assistant County Commissioner (Explorer Scouts)

A potential explosion of Explorer Scouts!!

Just before the summer break, in a quiet spell, I thought that I would have a look at the census figures for 2004 to see how many Scouts there were due to transfer to Explorers in the next 12 – 18 months.

We currently have 573 young people aged between 13 and 15 who should be encouraged to join the Units.

If that happened, each District would DOUBLE its number of Explorer Scouts in approximately 1 year.

Wimbledon & Wandle have a potential 102 new members, Royal Kingston 99, Sutton 128, Richmond 104 & Croydon 140.

Now I am a realist, but lets see what the census says in 2005.

Ian Newbery Assistant County Commissioner (Explorer Scouts)

Young Leader Explorer Scouts!!

On the run up to the summer break I have been visiting District GSL & Section meetings with a presentation on the Explorer Scout Young Leader scheme and its implications to Groups and particularly section Leaders.

The session covered who they are, why they are Young Leader Explorer Scouts, the training modules and missions that Young Leader Explorer Scouts need to complete, the role and responsibilities of the Section Leaders that they are working with and the insurance implications.

If you have not seen this presentation and you have Young Leader Explorer Scouts working in your section or Group ask your ADC or DC to contact me arrange a briefing at your next District meeting.

Ian Newbery Assistant County Commissioner (Explorer Scouts)

Explorer Belt Expedition 2006

The Explorer Scout and Scout Network sections are mounting an Explorer Belt Expedition to Lithuania during August 2006.

The Explorer Belt is the challenge of a lifetime, and is for members of the Scout Movement aged between 16 and 25. It is a chance to take part in a ten-day expedition that brings a real understanding of a different country, its people and way of life, and is sometimes described as ‘the antidote to the package holiday’. The young people involved will gain a real understanding of Lithuania by travelling mostly on foot for a minimum of 100 miles, completing surprise projects, working as a small team, and meeting local people.

Lithuania has been chosen because, despite being a member of the European Union, it retains a way of life and culture, which reflect its immediate past as a part of the former Soviet Union. It is also accessible in terms of geography and finance – we want the Expedition to be within the reach of all irrespective of their ability to pay.

Application forms are available from either Chris Dean or Ian Newbery.

Ian Newbery Assistant County Commissioner (Explorer Scouts)

County Explorer Night Hike 2005

Saturday 15th to Sunday 16th October 2005

The 1st team will start walking @ 7.30pm and teams will follow at regular intervals from that time. The route is of several lengths as last year, Bronze, Silver and Gold.

Units are to arrange their own transport to & from the hike, Unit members should not be allowed to drive, nor Leaders who have been up all night helping with the hike.

Units need to register the number of teams applying to walk with the Neil McLauchlan a.s.a.p. Latest date for entries is Friday 7th October 2005. However, please let us have your applications before this date.

Bring sleeping bags etc., as there will be space available for sleeping after you have finished walking.

Teams must be 4 – 6 Explorer Scouts. The age limit is that as defined in POR for Explorer Scouts. (Therefore the oldest entrants may be only just be over 18 years old)

More details & application forms are in the County Explorer Yearbook or are available on the County web site.

Neil McLauchlan County Explorer Scout Leader

Ever Thought of Text Messaging your Unit?

I’ve been doing some research into this and I am informed that the best company to do this with is ‘Cardboard Fish’ www.cbfsms.com. The texts are 5p each and you top up as you have to (minimum £15) which gets you 300 texts, and its relatively simple to do.

Ian Newbery Assistant County Commissioner (Explorer Scouts)

Queen’s Scout Award and Duke of Edinburgh’s Gold Award Presentation Evening

There will be a County Presentation of Queen’s Scout Awards (badges and some certificates where requested) plus DofE Gold Awards on Friday 9th December at 8pm. The venue and other arrangements to be advised, but recent ‘achievers’ are requested to keep the evening free. Chris Dean will be notifying all achievers individually.

Thinking Differently about GLSW

The County Strategic Plan was launched at the County AGM a few months ago and every GSL and ADC should now have a copy.

The exciting task to convert our plan into reality now begins! Many people in the County are working together to ensure the County Strategic Plan will be successful and our expectations for 31 December 2005 include:

• All uniformed adults will be wearing the new style uniform.
• Most Group Executives and District Executives will have published meeting dates for the whole of 2006.
• Most Scout Groups will be displaying the new Scouts Logo outside their HQ.
• Most Scout Groups will have adopted the corporate branding and be using the corporate style stationery and templates for all correspondence.
• The County Support Team and District Teams will publish and distribute a calendar of events for 2006 to every Section Leader.
• There will be at least one joint Beaver and Cub event being organised in every District for 2006.

The underlying goal is to have better Scouting for more young people. Some of the points listed above may appear insignificant, but they are the fundamental building blocks to some very important goals we plan to achieve next year.

In 2007, it is our aim that GLSW will be a vibrant, growing County. Let’s think differently!

Nigel Steward Deputy County Commissioner

There have been excellent articles in the Scouting Magazine on Recruitment and Training and in a recent issue June / July 2005 included procedure for Provisional Appointments and Getting Started – Adults Personal File and the Line Managers role.

Appointment sub-committees will issue new Leaders with a Provisional Certificate before H.Q. Enquiry Forms and CRB is returned. This Provisional Certificate is presented by the Leader’s Training Adviser as soon as possible. Once all checks have been returned and Getting Started has been completed the new Leader is then called before the Appointment Sub-Committee. This procedure will not take more than 5 months.

For new Leaders in the County as part of the Getting Started their Training Adviser will complete with them their Personal Learning Plan – leaving a copy with the Leader – one for their Training Adviser and a copy is sent to Margaret Pooley to keep a record of new Leaders awaiting modules.

Application Forms for Modules can be obtained from their Training Adviser.

For Leaders who have completed First Steps or Leadership One you will be hearing from the County Administrator Joan Condon as to what Modules under the new scheme you need to complete to gain your Wood Badge thus taking into account your previous training. So far we have informed Leaders in Croydon – Wimbledon & Wandle – Royal Kingston Districts. If you have not heard as to your future training please contact Joan Condon – 020 8540 5115. In the months to come we will be advising Leaders in Sutton and Richmond District of their training. Application Forms for Modules can be obtained from Joan Condon or on the web site. Dates for Modules for 2005 – 2006 should also be advertised in your District newsletters.

Participation in Scout Network activities goes from strength to strength. On June 10 we held our first-ever Barn Dance in Croydon with the Bonabrill Band in top form. This was most enjoyable although some of us were rather stiff when reporting for work at the Pinewood Scout Training Centre the following morning. Quite a lot of ground clearance has been completed, but there is more to be done – watch this space for details of further sessions over the winter.

On June 18 a Network team from GLSW competed in the Transwight Challenge, some 32 miles of night hiking west-to-east across the Isle of Wight. They finished in double-quick time to win the trophy for the fastest (and only!) team from the mainland. Meanwhile at Bow Lane the following day, the International Network held a BBQ, and it was good to see some new faces as well as the ‘regulars’. Prior to going to Sweden the Network arranged a weekend at Longridge where everyone could get to meet each other. We ran a very full programme, mostly of water activities, which culminated in rowing 2 miles to The Bounty on the Saturday after dinner, and returning suitably refreshed in the dark!

On July 8 a group of 11 made the journey to North Wales for the annual MS Challenge, a 10 km orienteering exercise with a non-ambulant MS patient in Forestry Commission woodland to raise funds for the Croydon and Sutton MS Therapy Centre. As usual, the course was steep and very boggy, but we enjoyed the river crossings at the end. We used Bethesda as our base for the weekend, and spent a day either on Angelsey or walking high in the Carnedds.

The climax of the year was undoubtedly the expedition to Sweden. Twenty six Network members made the trip – 18 went log-rafting for four days in Varmland before meeting the other 8 at ‘Edda’, an International Camp for 3,200 Scouts organised by the Skane Region of the SSF. Although the weather was somewhat disappointing, the Network had a great time as staff members before, during, and after the camp, making many new friends in the process. Roll on 2011!

There was no let-up on our return. A car-load drove to Broadstairs on August 10 to see the Okeedokee Band (on this occasion minus Matron Ophelia Pulse!) play a gig during the Folk Week. During the second half of the month we held a very successful expedition week in the Lake District, and also arranged a weekend’s caving in South Wales with the help of Croydon Caving Club.

Twenty members ran a base at the Gilwell Reunion on September 2-4, and enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere and, for the second consecutive year, really marvellous weather. Whilst there some members also signed up for the IST at the World Jamboree in 2007. Also in September we ran some ‘Moving On’ sessions for older Explorer Scouts in various parts of the County, and we hope this will encourage them to join the Scout Network when they are 18. As we go to press we have just held a successful afternoon of rugby 7’s and volleyball at Twickenham RFC. Congratulations in particular to Double Dragon ESU who were runners up in the volleyball competition.

Looking ahead, we will be at Tolmers for Sedan Chair races, the Peak District for Queen Scout Award hikes, and at The Royal Military Academy, Sandhurst, for the Mystery Investiture. We will also be running a base at the County Explorer Scout Night Hike on 15 October.

For details of Scout Nactivities contact your Local coordinator or visit the Network page on the County web site.
