Welcome to…
Sutton in Ashfield Girlguides
Our Group is a popular Group in the heart of Ashfield, providing skills for life for young people aged 4 to 18 and beyond.
Through fun, friendship, challenge and adventure we empower girls to find their voice, inspiring them to discover the best in themselves and to make a positive difference in their community.
But, we also get to hang out with our friends every week – having fun, playing games, working in a team and taking on new challenges.
Every week 5th/4th Sutton in Ashfield Scout and Guide Group give over one hundred 4-18 year olds 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.
Whoever you are, wherever you’re from – all girls are welcome
At Girlguiding, we give all girls an equal sense of belonging.
Girls with additional needs are always included in guiding.
We invite all members to make their promise to ‘be true to themselves and develop their own beliefs’. We welcome girls from every faith – and no faith.
We support our volunteers to make guiding a safe space for LGBTQ+ members too. And we have a great time attending Pride events all over the UK.
An inspirational network of volunteers
Our leaders and volunteers give their time so that girls get their voices heard and do great activities. They’re inspirational role models for girls too.
Come and join the fun!
Register your child, fundraise or volunteer – when you get involved, you’re empowering girls to know they can do anything.
Whoever they are, wherever they’re from, girls can do anything
Currently we have four Girlguiding Sections that you can join
