Public benefits

Advancement of Education The benefits which flow from this purpose include the physical, intellectual, emotional, social and spiritual development of young people so that they may achieve their full potential and, as responsible citizens, to improve society. To achieve this SFNI supports the aims of Scouting Ireland and offers support and services

to its Groups. SFNI aims to support the delivery of a range of programme opportunities that help the development of individual potential, encouraging community involvement and providing opportunities for young people to be listened to and have their say. These benefits will be demonstrated by regular evaluation of our services. In providing these services there is no known risk of unintended side effects. The benefits of this purpose are provided to children, young people and volunteers without distinction of origin, race, creed, gender, sexual orientation, or ability, in Northern Ireland. The private benefit flowing from this purpose is gained by a volunteer undertaking training and gaining transferable skills and staff members who are paid. These benefits are necessary to ensure the benefit is provided to our beneficiaries.
