There are lots of different ways for girls to be involved in the Senior Section:

  • challenging awards and qualifications such as the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award, Chief Guide’s Challenge and Queen’s Guide Award
  • exciting international trips and events
  • 4, an opportunity for young women to educate each other on important topics such as binge drinking, bullying and sexual health
  • residential events such as attending a music festival or an international or national camp in the UK
  • Innovate, a national forum for young women to discuss and contribute to the direction of Girlguiding UK.

In addition, Senior Section members can take part in the Look Wider programme.

Look Wider

Look Wider is a programme that has been designed exclusively for Senior Section members. The programme contains eight octants, which aim to encourage young women to develop new skills and improve existing ones:

  • creativity
  • fit for life
  • community action
  • out of doors
  • international
  • independent living
  • personal values
  • leadership.

Octants can be completed in any order and young women can do activities towards more than one octant at the same time, as individuals or part of a group.

Be challenged by new experiences & achieve a sense of pride in accomplishment.
