  • Barbecues
  • Bag packing
  • Car boot sales
  • Dinner parties
  • Five-a-side football competitions
  • Head shaving sponsorships
  • International nights (you can provide food, drink and entertainment from a particular country)
  • Marathons/half marathons
  • Quiz nights
  • Game tournaments eg Playstation, X-Box, Wii etc…

The proceeds from your event can be donated to Girlguiding UK or a particular area within local guiding.
