Guides
Guides make stuff happen!
Guides is our section for 10 - 14 year olds. By becoming part of a worldwide community of girls who learn together and share skills
and experiences, Guides have the chance to get out there and do something really different. Members take part in a wide range of exciting
activities at their regular meetings, and at special events or holidays. Girls can get involved in anything from adventure sports to
performing arts, travel and taking part in community action projects. Guides work together in small groups called 'Patrols'..

Starting Guides
We have 9 Guide units in Guernsey that meet in different areas of the island and on different nights.
When girls have been to Guides for a few weeks and feel ready, they can make their promise as a guide and start to wear the uniform. click here to

Uniform
The Guide uniform consists of:
- Polo Shirt
- Hoodie
- Long Sleeved Top
- Dress
- Skirt
All girls should have a uniform top or the dress, which can be worn with appropriate bottoms for the occasion. Your unit may have some
guidelines on what is and isn’t acceptable in normal meetings. If a girl chooses the dress she will need an item underneath, such as the
long-sleeved top, although she may wear a top of her choice in navy or black.
When an event is described as a formal occasion, the dress or a uniform top should be worn with either the optional uniform skirt and
navy/black leggings or tights or smart black or navy skirt or trousers (for example, those that girls might wear to school)
