Our Supporters

In addition to the 30 dedicated adult volunteers who run our regular section meetings, activities and camps, we also have over 10 young leaders who are either Explorer Scouts or Duke of Edinburgh volunteers.  Without the hard work and dedication of these volunteers we could not operate the group and would not be as successful as we are.

Although our day to day activities are financed by monthly subs we still need to raise funds to pay for new equipment, the training of our volunteers and improvements to our facilities.  In recent years this has been possible by the generous donations from the following local organisations;

• The Wotton Lions
• Wotton Round Table
• Wotton Rotary Club
• The Gloucestershire Free Masons
• Gloucester County Council – Growing our Communities Fund
• Gloucester County Council –  Build Back Better Fund
• Stroud District Council – Climate and Nature Activities
• Stroud District Council – Economic Development Fund
• Cotswold District Scouts 
• Nibley Festival Charitable Trust
• Dappled Daylight Shutters Ltd
• Heavens of the South
• The Falcon Restaurant
• The Wine Shack
• Wotton Scottish Country Dance Club
• Renishaw Charity Trust
• A J Stone and Family
• David James Partners
• Wotton under Edge Recreational Trust
• Tree Management, Bradley Farm

We also undertake our own fund raising activities such as;

• Town Hall Teas
• Teas at Conygres
• Bag Packing at local supermarkets
• Pancake sales at local events such as school fairs and Christmas Under The Edge
• The sale of our old hut in Wotton town

As we put in place our plans to develop the Conygres site and increase the size of our Hall, we have embarked on a fund raising strategy.  This has been extremely successful and has attracted funding from the following national organisations.  We would like to thank these organisations for their extremely generous grants and donations and support of the Scouting movement overall;

• The National Lottery
• Bernard Sunley Foundation 
• Garfield Western Foundation 
• Magnox NDA
• Arnold Clark
• Summerfield Charitable Trust
• Semperian (match funding)
• Denman Charitable Trust
• The Cooperative
• Lesley Sell Charitable Trust
• The Notgrove Trust
• Atkins Realis
• Lloyds Bank (match funding)
