02 Purpose and work
What the charity exists to do
Guides is a relaxed, welcoming space where you can have fun, learn and be yourself with good friends from 10 to 14 years old. Guides follow our programme. Around 60% of what girls do in regular unit meetings (local groups where Guides meet) is our programme. It’s created with girls and full of fun, adventure and variety. Our programme for Guides encourages you to be supportive and imaginative. You’ll explore and celebrate your individual passions! In unit meetings, you’ll do fun activities, play games and earn skills builder badges, all while being supported by our trained volunteers who give up their time for free.
