For parents

With guiding, your daughter will laugh, learn and have adventures – all at an affordable cost. Our fantastic volunteers will be there to support her right from the start.

📢 In these increasingly challenging times we at Girlguiding Scotland want to help support units and members. From Tuesday 1 November – Saturday 31 December, we will be giving a £5 voucher for every transaction of £25 and above (one voucher per transaction).

These vouchers, valid for six months, will be redeemable either in our Edinburgh store or via our online shop. If you can’t make use of the voucher yourself perhaps you would consider passing it onto a leader who could use it to help with costs of running the unit programme when buying badges etc.
