"Being a Rainbow, Brownie, Guide or member of the Senior Section opens up a world of opportunities that will last a lifetime. It provides a safe, girl-only space to explore the activities, issues and possibilities that are available to girls today."

Rainbows (age 5 to 7 years)

Rainbows have fun! They take part in games and activities as part of their programme called the Rainbow Jigsaw. Everything a Rainbow does helps her to develop and to think for herself, in a safe girl-only environment.

Brownies (age 7 to 10 years)

Brownies have fun! Their meetings are full of challenges, games and activities, usually ones that the Brownies have suggested themselves. Brownies belong to a Pack and work in small groups called Sixes. This gives each girl a group of ready-made friends to take care of her. It also makes her feel that she belongs to something special.
Brownies meet regularly and there are often opportunities for Brownies to take part in special activities and events throughout the year.

Guides (age 10 to 14 years)

Being a Guide is all about learning new skills, making your own decisions and having fun. Guiding provides a safe environment to explore new possibilities and achieve personal goals while making friends and having adventures. And it's up to each Guide to work out which opportunities are relevant for her, whether it's improving her football skills, party planning or learning about independent living.

Seniors (age 14 years and up)

In the Senior Section, young women participate in a fun and flexible programme known as Look Wider. The programme is also linked to a variety of recognised qualifications or awards, both within and outside guiding. The opportunities and challenges which guiding offers can be followed by a group or by individual members and are designed to be particularly beneficial to girls getting ready to embark on a career.
