Essex West


"I remember my Brown Owl showing us her serge underskirts to keep warm. I also remember not being able to ‘fly up’ to Guides as I had not gained enough badges. So, I made very sure that I did everything possible in Guides to get my Queen’s Guide award. This included many wonderful camps and holidays (don’t tell Captain we climbed out of the dormitory window to go on a midnight walk!) I think the main message I want to portray is that there are no barriers to entering Girlguiding, as virtually anybody can be a part of it and take part in the roles! The opportunities are open to all. I enjoy the fact that it creates the opportunity to meet with lots of different people, whether that be face to face or virtually; everyone involved is doing amazing things in so many different always."
