- Guides try new and adventurous activities.
- Guides have residential opportunities at sleepovers, camps and holidays. Many are lucky enough to travel abroad with guiding.
- Community action is an important part of the programme - helping others or the environment, both locally, nationally and internationally.
- Guides can work towards interest badges and annual challenge badges.
- Once you have been a Guide for a while, you can help at Rainbows or Brownies and you can work towards the Baden-Powell Challenge Award - this is the highest award a Guide can earn. Guides need to register with the County Adviser when they begin this award. A copy of the form for your Guider to download is available on the forms page, please ask her for one.
When a Guide has completed most of the challenges for her Baden-Powell Challenge Award, she takes part in an adventure, along with other Guides from Cheshire Border. These are organised 2 or 3 times a year by the County Adviser for Guides.
This page shows some photos of Guides enjoying guiding events.
For any help or advice involving Guides, please contact your County Guide Adviser who is Angela Ross. SEARCH Members' Directory.
