Call for volunteers

OVER 200 girls and young women across the region sit on a waiting list to join a Rainbow, Brownie, Guide or Ranger unit.

And now a recruitment campaign had been launched to find volunteers to join Girlguiding Scotland.

The role includes getting involved in everything from adventure weekends away to earning new badges, and Girlguiding Scotland wants to provide even more girls and young women a safe space to have fun, connect with their friends and build skills for their future.

Chief guide for Girlguiding Scotland Moira McKenna said: “We currently have a strong team of around 10,000 volunteers, but with growing demand we want to ensure that all girls and young women have the opportunity to join Girlguiding.

“New volunteers can choose from opportunities to work directly with young members and lead on the delivery of activities; go on international trips and adventure weekends away; and access bespoke training.”

If you’re interested in becoming a volunteer or know a girl who would like to join guiding, visit www.girlguidingscotland.org.uk/get-involved/ to find out how to get involved.
