Girlguiding is the UK’s largest youth organisation dedicated completely to girls, with around 370,000 members.
Girls can do anything. We help them know that, whether they’re 4 or 18 or in between. All girls have a home at Girlguiding - whoever they are, and wherever they are. We show them a world of possibilities, big and small. We help them think big and be bold in a space where they can be themselves, get creative, explore, and have fun. We’re a powerful collective voice – with girls, led by girls – changing the world for the better.
We’re 300,000 Rainbows, Brownies, Guides and Rangers, who come together to laugh, learn, explore and have adventures, in communities across the UK and virtually. We're 70,000 volunteers who make guiding happen by giving time, talent and enthusiasm.
Opportunities
Over a 16 month period, the Generation Green project delivered more than 115,000 opportunities to connect young people to nature.
Free resources
We want all young people to get outside as much as possible and get closer to nature.

Statement from the CEO
"We’re really pleased to be part of the Access Unlimited coalition and a grateful joint recipient of this important funding. It has enabled Girlguiding to boost our outdoors training for volunteers, widen access to our campsites, and inspire more girls and young women to deepen their connection to nature and the outdoors.
"At a time when young people are facing many challenges, enabling adventures outdoors is vital to supporting their wellbeing."
Angela Salt, CEO
