Decision details

Replacement cladding, guttering and doors - New cladding to the entire building, replacement facia and guttering and a new secure door to the main entrance.

To provide funding of £ 500 to the above project.

Reason for decision:

The 1st Cheriton Scout Hut is used by ourselves, local groups such as line dancers and Slimming World groups along with the local council as a polling station. Historically the building has been used as a local bingo hall and also as a secondary school special assistance centre for many months.

Scouting gives young people the opportunity to try new things, be of service to others, builds self-confidence and reinforces ethical standards.

These opportunities not only help them when they are young, but carry forward into their adult lives, as well.

What children learn in their formative years is instrumental in shaping their characters.

Scouting builds character by teaching confidence and self-reliance, and promoting positive role models as your child grows and develops.

Through planned advancement, Scouts are always in a learning environment, increasing their capacity for goal-setting, choice making and accomplishment.

Scouting Brings Families Together. Scouting is unique in that it offers families a variety of experiences not found in other activities and in doing so enriches the local community.
