Take action
Want to make a difference?
The Make change skills builder will show you how to identify issues in your local community and help you take action to change things for the better. Stage 5 is recommended for Guides and Rangers.
Here's a taste of the activities you can look forward to trying at this stage. Ask your leader about all the things you'll need to do to earn this badge.

Mini manifesto - Do good things really come in small packages? Investigate the issues that matter most to you and bring together your ideas to make a tiny change-making declaration!
