Calling parents of Scouts, Cubs, Beavers....fees?

[snowplop]

I'm curious to find out what membership and subscription fees are and whether they differ vastly from area to area. Would anyone mind sharing?

Ours in Leics have been put up this month. £47 per child per year membership fee plus £12 monthly subs.

£10 per month, manchester area

Beavers £27 a term in Berkshire

Down South.
£3 per session.
No membership fee.

Beavers, West Mids, £35 per term or £30 for siblings

£10 a month. Lincolnshire.

From which we, as leaders, get £1 per child per session to spend on activities. Rest goes on the annual subscription, leader training, electricity bill, hut upkeep, DBS checks...

£3 per session, no membership fee here in SE Kent.

£36 a term. No membership fee that I can recall. My husband and helps out every week (including pre session organisation meetings) and we still pay our subs. It's good value. The subs don't go to paying anyone - it's all spent on resources for the pack and hall hire.

I help with scouts - we had to increase prices recently and asked around our area. Please be mindful different groups include different items - so some groups near us charge more but include a number of camps a year. We charge £10 per month all year. I pay the same for my daughter at brownies they also have an annual fee.

£35 per term or £100 up front for the year.

London £35 per term

Rural Devon £25 a term here

West Sussex. Beavers. £48/term plus £10 admin fee when joining each section. All general activities, badges, neckerchiefs, snacks etc are included. We only pay extra for big outings and sleepovers.

£50 for the year here in NI

We charge £40 per term and we pay the annual membership fee out of that. the annual membership in wales was £53 this year so you can see its a big chunk out of it!

Thanks all for your replies. It's a wonderful organisation that my kids love being part of.

South east and I think it's £30 a term

We're on North Yorkshire and pay the £50 capitation fee annually (which goes straight to the Scouts Association, I believe) and then £15 per term to the Unit for everything else.

Just paid subs for this half term (Feb to Easter hols) which was £28 which is average.

We get a bill at the end of each term for about £38

Scouts is £120 a year and summer camp is £250. There are very occasional additional costs for exciting trips.
Scout leaders you are AWESOME.

£8 per month. No membership fee IIRC. Extra for camps, trips out, etc

Wirral here - £7 per child, per month.

Scout in outer London borough - £100 per year. It was £90 until 2019, first increase in over 10 years. That includes the amount send to the district for the Scout Association.

Beavers
County Durham
£14 a month and one of the best £14 a month I will ever spend!

Essex, Beavers, £36 per term.
