Regular Help

Brownies are girls aged 7-10 years old. Brownies opens up a world of exciting challenges and the opportunity to try new things and to have lots of fun! Girls can get the opportunity to go along to camps, holidays, day trips and sleepovers. They get together with their friends at regular meetings where they learn new hobbies, get creative, explore other cultures and have outdoor adventures.

Leaders are needed to help run regular sessions. 

Guiding wouldn't be able to happen without our incredible volunteers.  They give their time because they are passionate and care about enrighing the lives of girls.

What's involved?

Whether it's an hour or two every few months or a regular weekly commitment, there are lots of ways to volunteer and help Girlguiding Cornwall inspire girls in Cornwall today.

Leaders undertake regular training in everything from first aid and child safety to running activities and planning trips away.

We are looking for female leaders to take on the challenge.  However, if you'd like to be involved with guiding but you're not sure that you have the time to commit regularly, there are plenty of important jobs that can be done more flexibly.  You could;

• take part in a one-off session with your local unit, teaching girls skills such as crafts, pilates or gardening to help them acquire a badge
• help with unit accounts or administration
• be the driver for an away day
• lend a hand with fundraising
• help out with DIY

Why get involved?

"People often ask me why I volunteer for Girlguiding, but here I am in the beautiful New Forest, with six of our Guides and Rangers at a Girlguiding Festival! The girls are having the times of their lives, making new friends, learning new skills, developing their independence and resilience, and making memories they will never forget.  The Smiles on their faces when they accomplish something they didn't think tye could, and seeing them reach out to fulfil their potential, that's why I do it - and I love every minute of it!"  Michelle, Guider with 1st Mullion Guides and the 1st Lizard Peninsula Rangers.
