About Girl Guides

The Girl Guides movement has inspired young people for more than a century, offering opportunities to learn skills, make friends, and contribute to communities. With sections such as Rainbows, Brownies, and Guides, there are activities suited to every age group.

Through quizzes like the World Cultures and Customs quiz and the Promise and Law quiz, players can explore traditions, values, and the global reach of Guiding. The Brownies Overview and Rainbow Overview quizzes test knowledge of the UK sections of Guiding.

Guiding empowers young people to develop confidence, leadership, and a sense of belonging. It continues to grow worldwide through the work of the World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts.

See the official Government guidance: World Association Of Girl Guides & Girl Scouts.
