GO GUIDING
We want all girls across our county to have the space and opportunities they need to thrive, grow and take back to their communities. From age 5 - 24, girls are given the chance to develop new skills, to meet new people and to have experiences centred on our values -
Have a look and see what girls have been getting up to across Bedfordshire - you might even spot your local group in our news round up or see an event that you’d like to go to with your Rainbow, Brownie, Guide or Senior Section. To find out how to get involved yourself or to share news from your unit, you can find our details on the back of this newsletter. Thanks for being part of Guiding Bedfordshire!
Fun!
Girls having the space to have fun with friends, creating memories for life.
