Girlguiding Scotland

Girlguiding Scotland is Scotland’s leading charity for girls and young women. Every year we
empower 50,000 girls to be their best and face the challenges of growing up today. We’ve been
doing this through adventure, friendship and fun for over 100 years. We inspire girls. We give them
space to grow, and strive to ensure that each one of them can get involved – no matter what their
background or ability. We have more than 12,000 amazing volunteers who, along with our fantastic
supporters, make that happen. We’re dedicated to creating a better world for girls and young
women. What we do makes a positive difference to the lives of all girls and young women across
Scotland – not just our members.


Current opportunity

Would you like to go on fun adventures, explore and laugh with friends? At Girlguiding we do everything from camping to campaigning! We’re all about girls and young women laughing, learning and having adventures. Why not join the fun? Meetings usually run on weekday evenings for about an hour, and you can choose how much or how little you can help out! Our different sections cover ages 4-18, so there’s something for everyone. Youth volunteering with Girlguiding Scotland looks great on a CV, and can improve skills like teamwork, leadership, communication, creativity and IT. It’s great experience if you want a career in youthwork or education. You can get extra training like First Aid, the disclosure check for working with children is paid for by us and we’ll help you every step of the way. There are loads of meetings happening all over South Lanarkshire, so you can join one close to you. Our volunteers are what makes Girlguiding amazing, and we welcome people of all backgrounds and walks of life. Come have a chat with us, you won’t regret it!
