GBM has lots of benefits for our leaders, including:
- It streamlines their administration – managing everything in one place electronically helps to keep record keeping quick and easy
- All leaders can access the system (to different extents based on their role) whether they’re in a group, a district, or a region
- Recording young people’s data - so leaders can manage personal details including contact details for parents/carers and medical details; and communicate with parents/carers from GBM with email or text messaging
- Managing leaders’ data (with some restrictions)
- Keeping track of weekly attendance and linking this to their programme/badges
- Keeping badge records and managing their events/residential events
- Transferring members when they move up a section or even move to a different group
- Parents get access to a parent portal where they can sign their child up to events, see badge progress, and update details
- Track income and expenditure – recording receipts and payments for events and activities making it easy to make expense claims or analyse costs
- The system is used by thousands of leaders in Scouting, Guiding, and Boys’ Brigade
- It can be accessed online and offline on a computer or via a mobile device
- The system is safe, secure and data protection act compliant.
