Subscriptions

Our main source of income is the subscription fees (“subs”) that are paid by all young people in the Group. Our subs are paid on an annual basis but in 12 monthly payments. For 2024, these are £17.50 taken by direct debit on the 5th day of each month.

Once your child starts, you will receive a email notification for you to set up the direct debit within OSM.

Subs cover the running of our own hall, national HQ subscription fees, insurance, and our Scouting meetings, Occasionally, we may ask for contributions toward activities beyond our ‘normal’ meetings where the budget does not cover it. For example, we may have an end of term trip to an aqua park, activity centre, etc.
