Rangers is your space – where you get together with other girls from 14 to 18 to have fun, learn more, give back, hang out, and just be you. It’s regular meetings with your local group, trips at home and abroad, making a difference to the things you care about. It’s an open and relaxed space to talk

Rangers follow our programme. In unit meetings, you’ll do fun activities, play games and earn skills builder badges, all while being supported by our trained volunteers.
You could get skills builder badges in themes such as camping, communication and first aid. And if you want to take guiding home, there’s lots of interest badges to do in between unit meetings, like the protesting badge, animation badge and travel badge.
Discover all the badges Rangers can earn.
Rangers can also help you learn lots of new skills, add to your CV, build your confidence and change the lives of girls across the UK and the world.
You could become a young leader with a local unit and inspire our younger sections, train to be a peer educator and give girls a space to talk about what’s important to them, do your Lead Away permit, Duke of Edinburgh’s Award and, from 16, your Queen’s Guide award. How about becoming a member of Amplify, who help staff and senior volunteers make decisions about the future of Girlguiding, or perhaps become an advocate and talk to MPs and other politicians - be a spokesperson for Girlguiding and speak at events.
Rangers will have a record on our central database which is managed by themselves. The Unit Leader will also access this record and use it to update Ranger programme process and also to update details about the Ranger. Unit Leaders can contact parent/carers by email and in some instances, by WhatsApp.
Rangers meet around twice a month on a week night during the school term in venues across the borough.
Rangers usually wear a uniform top, and other clothes suitable for being active in.

Guides is a relaxed, welcoming space where you can have fun, learn and be yourself with good friends from 10 to 14 years old. A place where you can explore the things you love and do stuff you’ve never done before. Where else can you think up a new sport, make a new perfume, cook over a campfire...
