Guiding for Good

You're invited to take part in our new and exciting region initiative, Guiding for Good, happening Saturday 4 - Sunday 12 October 2025.

At its heart, Guiding for Good gives our members the opportunity to live out a key part of our Girlguiding promise - to serve our communities and to help other people. It shows what we're all about while forging and strengthening more valuable and lasting links within our communities. And maybe even inspiring people to join us!

We’re inviting you and your unit to use the Guiding for Good week to come up with a project benefitting your local community. Our goal is that, wherever you go in the region that week, you’ll see girls and volunteers from all sections out in their communities making a difference, helping to raise awareness of Girlguiding and what it means to be a member.

And your unit will receive free wristbands and badges just for taking part. See below for all the details and how to sign up.

About Guiding for Good

We’d like to see as many members as possible serving their communities and helping others through creating or getting involved in local projects during this dedicated week (and beyond!).

We know from Girlguiding's Girls' Attitudes Survey that feeling part of a community, giving back, and speaking up is increasingly important to girls and especially to Girlguiding members (Impact Report 2023). It’s also an opportunity to put our promise into action and increase our visibility in our communities.

Think of a project your unit, district, division or even county could do to take action in your local community. It could be a visit to a residential home, helping out at a food bank or undertaking a local conservation project. Ideally, your project will have you visible in or interacting with your community.

See the ideas below for inspiration – these pages will be continuously updated with ideas and information over the summer and in the run up to Guiding for Good week. Or use your own ideas and contacts in your community. You'll also find a range of resources to help you along the way and share what you’re up to.

Of course! We will ask you to complete a short survey after you've completed your activity or project. As a thank you, we'll post you your free badges (postage also free of charge).
