Subscriptions and Donations
 

Subscriptions are payable termly and should be paid by half term, or by the October half term for ‘holiday’ subscriptions that are paid annually.  Subscriptions are not refundable, unless the young person to whom they relate leaves 1st Claygate Scout Group (“the Group”) permanently before the fourth week of each term and the Section Leader has been notified that the young person no longer wishes to continue in the 1st Claygate Scout Group. 

Gift Aid may be reclaimed by the group on subscriptions and donations provided a valid Gift Aid Declaration has been signed by the taxpayer.  Gift Aid forms are available from the Group Treasurer.
 
Activities and events
 

Payments for Activities and events should be made according to the timetable provided by the organiser of the event.  Receipt of payment by the Group is no guarantee that the young person has a firm place for the activity or event, but if the place is not available a full refund will be made. 

Payments are not normally refundable unless the event is cancelled and/or a place is not available when a full refund will be made.

Where a payment represents part payment or deposit for an activity or event that deposit may be forfeited if the young person withdraws from the event or activity without giving adequate notice to the appointed leader. 

Refunds will only be made onto the card used to make the original payment.
