New South Wales Branch Trust Funds
The NSW Branch Trust Management Committee continues to manage nancial assistance to Scouts NSW youth members to attend national and international events. Unfortunately the current funding available is somewhat tight.We are therefore appreciative of the Chief Commissioner, Neville Tomkins’ suppor t and enthusiasm
in looking for additional sources of funding to provide more opportunities. Special circumstances enabled the Committee to support 3 Scouts attend the New Zealand Jamboree in January 2017 and will assist aVenturer attend the German Jamboree later this year.
