| Being a
Guide is all about belonging to a group, learning
new skills, making new friends and helping
others. Each Guide is encouraged to achieve her
own personal goals through a progressive
programme with the opportunity to work for a wide
variety of badges. This allows the girl to mature
and develop at her own pace. |
 |
Guides
work together in Patrols, groups of four to eight
girls, providing a ready-made group of friends
and helping the girls to feel that they belong to
something special. They elect their own leader. A
Patrol plans its own activities with the support
of the Guide Guider so that each Guide learns to
share in decisions that affect herself and others
in the Patrol. |
