Hi! My name in Emily and I am a Guide Leader and Peer Educator. As a Peer Educator I educate Brownies, Guides, and Rangers on topics that are important to them in an age appropriate manner! Topics include mental resilience, girls safety, and stereotypes. I run one session, at your usual meeting place and time, that are worth up to 90 UMAs. Please contact me at peered@girlguidinghn.org.uk to book in! I look forward to visiting your units!
I look forward to hearing from you!
Every unit and area of guiding should have their own emergency file.
Take it with you to all your unit meetings and activities so if anything does happen, you can be confident that you’ve got everything you need.
The emergency file should contain all the forms and information you need in case there's an incident or accident so you can manage any emergency situation.
Download everything you need to keep in your emergency file here
Don't worry If you have lost the original red 'Girlguiding emergency file' folder just use any suitable folder instead - possibly a red one so it's easily recognisable!

Vacancies
In order to continue to move the county forward, the county team is looking to expand as well as seek to fill existing vacancies.

This role is varied but there is plenty of support from other advisers.
