Chair

Ewan Bell

What I've done
  • Handover: Handover has gone successfully, with the new Pink team all settled into their roles!
  • Reasonable Adjustment Policy: Has been successfully written and is being voted on in Rep!
What I'm working on
  • Pink: Continue leading Pink meetings and helping the rest of the team
  • Policy: A lot of our policies are outdated and don't reflect current best practice. My aim for over summer is to update/condense these to be more manageable

Secretary

Lucy Mott

What I've done
  • Figuring out my role: Since handover I have been getting to grips with all of my responsibilities and battling with the SSAGO emailing system. I've managed lots of reps admin and have been doing my best to keep us organised!
  • Minuting and Agenda-ing: I've been doing lots of minuting and agenda-ing, trying to get them shared with you all as soon as possible though final exams have got in the way a little recently.
  • NANs and AANs: I've been responding to the influx of NANs and AANs that we have had recently as lots of clubs are heading on Summer Camps and doing lots of exciting activities!
What I'm working on
  • Reps: Although I have already been doing lots of reps-y work, I still have plenty to do and am excited to have a go at minuting my first reps!
  • Hyperlinks: I want to take on the suggestion of carrying out some complex technological magic so that the google forms on the website are hyperlinks. This would make them a lot easier for clubs to use.
  • Be more organised: Get the actions and emails spreadsheet going again so that these can be managed more easily!

Treasurer

Lara Hagger

What I've done
  • Development Fund: approved dev fund bids (there should be seven clubs with reports at reps) and supported clubs with these applications.
  • (how many have I approved since february - we’re gonna have 7 reports at reps)
  • Events: supported local events with finances and the use of our bank accounts, added/removed people from the SSAGO bank accounts, and am looking forward to seeing all the amazing things everyone gets up to :)
  • @ssagomoneybunny: broken into Money Bunny’s instagram account and she is ready to begin posting…
What I'm working on
  • Annual Accounts: my goal is to have the accounts from April 2024 to November 2026 done and reviewed by the end of my term as SSAGO Treasurer.
  • Documents of Advice: I am currently working on a document that can be sent to national event treasurers with the advice, ideas, and general reassurance.

Publicity

Ellie Lees

What I've done
  • Term Start:
  • It's been a slow start to my term as Publicity Officer, as I've been prioritising my university exams and assignments. However, with summer on the horizon, I've got some exciting projects in the works, and I'm looking forward to getting started on the aims I was elected on.
  • TikTok:
  • The mystery of the TikTok account continues! Despite it being a key point I was elected on, I have yet to gain access due to a mysterious phone number linked to the account. Don't be surprised if my next Reps Update includes an update on me emailing TikTok directly!
  • Recruitment:
  • With the new academic year approaching, I'm working on getting resources out to promote SSAGO to incoming freshers and help increase our membership. Don't be surprised if you see some SSAGO-related posts appearing on Facebook over the coming weeks.
  • Events and Outreach:
  • We'll also be attending the majority of the major jamborees this summer, as well as Gilwell Reunion, promoting SSAGO alongside Inspire and Network. This will be a great opportunity to introduce more young people to SSAGO and hopefully encourage them to get involved when they head off to university.
What I'm working on
  • TikTok:
  • Gain access to the SSAGO TikTok account and begin developing content to strengthen SSAGO's presence on the platform.
  • Freshers Recruitment:
  • Start advertising SSAGO to incoming freshers through social media, events, and promotional resources to help grow our membership ahead of the new academic year.
  • Rali Eryri:
  • Work alongside the rest of the Rali Committee to deliver a successful and enjoyable Rali Eryri for all attendees.
  • Badge Packs:
  • Begin work on developing badge packs in collaboration with Bee, creating resources that can be used to promote SSAGO to Ramgers and Explores as well as engage existing members

  • Summer: I'm really looking forward to Team Pink Weekend and Gilwell Reunion, and the opportunities they bring to support SSAGO!

  • Clubs: I've mainly been helping clubs as they prepare for next year, helping committees get used to their new roles.

Webmaster

Abi Pain

What I've done
  • Migration: work has begun on moving the SSAGO website and digital infrastructure to new servers to give us a stable foundation to build on. The live website on the internet is currently still powered by the old servers.
  • Strategy: We've decided to work on substantially improving the existing website as opposed to building a completely new one as we believe that will be a more efficient way to improve things.
What I'm working on
  • Migration: continue to work on moving the SSAGO website to its new servers, and eventually having the live website served by the new servers.
  • Enhancement: once migration is completed, we can begin to work on upgrading and improving parts of the website!

Events

Rose Moran

What I've done
  • - Had several meetings with space rally and helped with the final stages of their website and approving it.
  • - I have had at least 1 meeting with most events dependent on their level on need.
  • - I have worked with the treasurer to research and pick a savings account for Witan.
  • - Organised meetings with several SSAGO members to create reasonable adjustment plan and emergency medical plan so that they can feel comfortable at rallies while also support first aiders if any medical event may occur.
What I'm working on
  • - To debrief on how first aid / rally adjustment plan is going after rally.
  • - To work alongside the new web assistants to improve tech and website support going forward.
  • - Get feedback from national events as to what they would like to see from the event resources drive.
  • - Have a chair specific initial meeting with new event to go through how best to organise a committee and suggest potential meeting structures.

Charities

Ben Dickinson

What I've done
  • Registration: We submitted an application back in November and the Charity Commission are still considering it. This is much longer than previous applications so hopefully that's a good sign! It is just a case of waiting to see what happens now.
  • Club Affiliation Agreements: We have started the process with the first couple of clubs and are in the process of working out any issues in the agreement. These will likely all be unique to the SU so it isn't necessarily an easy process.
  • Handover: Having recently left the Liaisons role, I worked on handing over to Charlie who has got off to a great start to the role! I have also taken over as Charities from Alex and received a great handover there too!
What I'm working on
  • Registration: My main aim for my role is to register SSAGO as a charity. We are currently looking at registering as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation as that allows the trustees (and SSAGO) the most legal protection.
  • Club Affiliation Agreements: We are aiming to have our first batch of these signed by the start of the new academic year, and then start rolling them out more widely. If your club has a good relationship with your SU, please let me know!

Liaisons

Charlie Cunnane

What I've done
  • USKT: Rally and ball committees now no longer required to be members of the UKST as these events are now for over18s only. Local events being added when requested. Some issues with not getting notifications about compliance but working to resolve ASAP.
  • External Relationships: Have managed to maintain the communication between SSAGO, and TSA, GG, and SAGGA well. Joined SAGGA committee and working with them to maintain the relationship there. Spoken to contacts in both TSA and GG for a renewed Memorandum of Understanding with both - this has been delayed in both due to internal structural changes and challenges in their organisations, but we are working together to get them signed ASAP.
  • Working with Team Pink: Continue to attend meetings as often as I can, and working with event support, policy updating, and other governmental and operational tasks. First few months working as Liaisons Officer has come with challenges, but I am excited to see where we go from there!
What I'm working on
  • UKST: Continue to manage the UK Support Team (formerly SASU), ensuring everyone who requires a role for any local volunteering or event committee has the appropriate checks and training complete.
  • External Relationships: Continue to maintain healthy relationships with The Scout Association, GirlGuiding, and SAGGA.
  • Working with the rest of Team Pink: Work effectively with the rest of Team Pink for the general governance and running of SSAGO as a whole.
