Organisation Description
Description of Organisation
Girlguiding is dedicated to creating a better world for girls and young women
We empower girls, we give them space to grow and we ensure that each one of them can get involved - no matter what their background or ability. Here are some of the things that make our charity special.
We want all girls across the UK to have the space and opportunities they need to thrive, grow and give back to their communities
More than 400,000 girls already meet regularly as Rainbows, Brownies, Guides and Rangers. Together they learn skills, grow in confidence, make lifelong friendships, help their communities and have lots of fun.
Girls speak, then we listen and act.
All girls in Girlguiding get the chance to choose what they do - from Rainbows picking activities, to members of The Senior Section sitting on our Council.
Every year, our Girls' Attitudes Survey gives girls and young women a chance to tell the world about the issues affecting them and what change they want to see. Then we plan campaigns with Advocate, our youth panel, and support girls to make that change happen.
