Through fun, friendship, challenge and adventure we empower girls to find their voice, inspiring them to discover the best in themselves and to make a positive difference in their community.
More than 300,000 girls meet as Rainbows, Brownies, Guides and Rangers. We fire their imaginations through challenges and adventures for all personalities and abilities, from 4 to 18 years old.
Guiding is so much more than an after school club. Here's why we're special.
We give girls a space just for themGirls face pressures and expectations in every area of their lives. They’re limited by gender stereotypes and face barriers to accessing things they need to feel happy. They tell us they don’t feel safe in their daily lives.
In our relaxed and encouraging all-girl spaces, every girl can be herself and feel at home. No pressure, no judgement – just fun and learning with other girls, guided by our inspiring volunteers.
We won't tell them an activity is 'for boys'. Our girls get to score tries at rugby, go bouldering or simply play the games that they enjoy most.
We give girls somewhere they can talk openly about what affects them and get support from other girls.
All units follow Girlguiding's programme. In unit meetings, they do fun activities, play games and earn skills builder badges, all while being supported by our trained volunteers.
We earn skills builder badges in themes such as camping, communication and first aid. And there’s lots of interest badges to do in between unit meetings.
We also attend events planned locally and regionally.
