Finances should never be a barrier for a volunteer or young member to take part in Girlguiding. Do you need financial assistance with things such as opening a new unit, attending training, buying uniform or resources, travel, accessibility, supporting people in need, going away in the UK or further afield, unit subscriptions and annual subscriptions? If so, our Access to Guiding grant is there to support you.

Please note that before applying, you must first approach your district, division and county for financial support.
