Fees
There are two separate fees which must be paid for each young person taking part in Scouting as a member of any of the Sections at 10th Fife (1st Cupar) Scouts: Capitation fees and Term fees.

All fees should be paid by bank transfer or standing order. Section leaders will follow up with parents where fees have not been paid.
Note that some activities may need to be paid for over and above the regular fees.
Why are they separate?
Doing things this way makes it easier for Leaders to get access to the money they need for Scouting activities.
It also helps us to claim the maximum possible amount of Gift Aid on capitation fees.
Gift Aid
All capitation fees paid via the bank accounts are eligible for Gift Aid. Please make sure you are signed up - it costs you nothing to do, takes less than a minute to fill in and send back, and it allows the Group to claim an extra 25p for every £1 you donate as fees.
Gift Aid has to be done separately for each Scout Group, so if you are moving to Cupar from another Scout Group, you'll need to do a new form please. If you've done it for Cupar Scouts already then you don't need to do it again.
Please return the gift aid form as a digital copy to the email address on the form.
What if I can’t pay?
If you are unable to pay fees or cover the costs of any activity, please speak to your Section leader. We do not wish for any young person to miss out on Scouting for this reason.
