Girlguiding Anglia Lead Volunteer for Growth and Insight, Ann Crome, has spent many years recruiting young members in her home county of Bedfordshire. Here she shares some of the resources available from Girlguiding Anglia to help other leaders also to recruit young members for their units. Many of the ideas and resources have been adapted from those used in counties across our region and we welcome ideas for additional materials.

Recruitment ideas

If you are in the position of having spaces available to girls, so want to recruit, we have collected tried and tested ideas from leaders across the Anglia region.

Social Media

Posting on local community groups can be a very successful way to recruit. Girlguiding Anglia has created editable images you can use as well as the national recruitment campaign resources being able to be downloaded and used. Again they are available for each section.
