SCOUT FOUNDATION

GIRLGUIDING ULSTER
Guiding provides over 10,000 girls and young women with opportunities to reach their potential and take an active and responsible role in the world around them. Girlguiding’s distinctive stimulating and enjoyable programme of activities are delivered by over 2,000 trained volunteer leaders across Northern Ireland.

SCOUTS NI
Scouts prepare young people with skills for life – helping them speak up, take the lead and play their part. Each week we give almost half a million people aged 6-25 the skills they need for school, college, university, the job interview, the important speech, the tricky challenge and the big dreams: the skills they need for life.
