It’s Time to Volunteer!



How about making a dif f erence to the lives of girls in your community?
How about f or fun, fr iendship, and loads of adventure?
Our members take part in loads of great activities which are designed to spark girls' imaginations, expand their horizons, and help them to believe in themselves. Volunteering with us isn't just about campfires and helping girls get their next badge - although those are special moments that we all share It's about empowering girls and giving them new experiences. It's being a role model and helping girls to realise their full potential.
Not only that it is a wonderful opportunity for a refreshing break from your everyday routine, spending time laughing, playing, and being inspired by incredible girls and young women. Working with young people and other volunteers helps develop valuable, transferable skills like event planning, time management, leadership skills, and budgeting, all whilst having lots of fun and adventure along the way
Volunteering with Girlguiding Bedfordshire is both rewarding and fulfilling and you never know what will happen next!
How about f or the chance of inter national travel, lear ning new skills and shar ing your own?
Being a leader means that you will be surrounded by fantastic people who are passionate about helping girls succeed and thrive.

600 Brownies from across Bedfordshire were delighted to take part in an aptly named Royal Garden PartyDragons in Tiaras - hosted by Wrest Park in Silsoe.
With the help of the HMS Wales Historic Re-enactment Society, the girls were taken back to Nelson's Navy in 1805 and took part in lots of fun games and activities across the grounds. The event ended with a big bang on the bowling green as the HMS Wales Captain and his crew fired a royal salute across the lake
Girls from across the county have been taking on these two amazing challenges.
Explore the historic grounds and museums using specially designed maps, following the clues, and discovering the beautiful grounds, fascinating histories, and technology
There are cool projects to take part in which will be both fun and educational Wonderful days to remember!

If you love the great outdoors and thrive under canvas - then our camping opportunities in the UK and abroad are calling you!
