Girl Guiding Whittlesey

Back to Activities

Girl Guiding is a charity for girls and young women. It offers amazing opportunities and activities that give girls the chance to discover their potential and learn new skills.

This activity is good for wellbeing because

  • it’s flexible and can fit around busy lifestyles
  • learn new skills for life
  • support for everyone

‘I love all the outdoor activities and camping and sleepovers. I think it’s great for our age because we haven’t grown out of all the silly and fun things yet.’

Heather, 13, Guide
