    We're proud to announce that HRH The Duchess of Edinburgh is our new patron. The Duchess has been a passionate supporter of Girlguiding for many years since taking over the role of president from Princess Margaret in 2003. Read our statement in full: bit.ly/3TVRkN4

    This week is #AceWeek - a time to raise awareness and understanding of the asexual community. So here’s a shout-out to all of our asexual volunteers and members – thank you for everything you do in Girlguiding.

    A big well done to your daughter, Ed - she can count independence, following directions, enjoying the outdoors, money management and - most importantly - eating chips as achievements for that iconic badge! 👏

    Earlier this year we launched our new diversity and inclusion strategic plan so Girlguiding can be a place where everyone feels welcome, free to be themselves and has an equal sense of belonging. Please be respectful whilst communicating on our social media pages.

    Hey @LucyandYak, we’re flattered. How about adding some Brownie badges to get the authentic look? We’d recommend Inventing, Zero Waste and maybe Conscious Consumer when you’re ready to move up to Guides 🤭💛🤎

    Following the recent press coverage, here is our statement about the recent membership withdrawals.

    41% of girls told us they're put off being leaders because there's too much focus on their looks, not what they do 💔 Appearance-centric abuse is stopping girls from using their voices – and it has to stop. Thank you @TracyBrabin for taking a stand 👏

    The descriptions of Jo Swinson as 'bossy' and being like a 'head girl' are sexist. This should not be happening in 2019. 34% of girls are put off politics because of the way the female politicians are portrayed in the media. #GirlsAttitudes #GE2019 inews.co.uk/news/politics/…

    Simply being transgender does not make someone more of a safeguarding risk than any other person. We proudly remain trans inclusive.
