Guiding at Eltham Park Methodist Church

Girlguiding UK is the United Kingdom’s largest voluntary organisation for girls and young women, with about 575,000 members including about 65,000 trained volunteer adult Leaders.

Girlguiding UK enables girls and young women to develop their potential and to make a difference to the world. Girl Guiding has been part of Eltham Park since 1913, 3 years after the movement began and we have thriving Rainbows, Brownies & Guide sections

Rainbows are girls aged five to seven who have fun! They take part in games and activities as part of their programme called the Rainbow Jigsaw.  Everything a Rainbow does helps her to develop and to think for herself, in a safe girl-only environment.

Our Rainbows meet on Thursday evenings from 5.45 to 7.00.

Brownies are girls aged seven to ten who have fun! Their meetings are full of challenges, games and activities, usually ones that the Brownies have suggested themselves.

Our Brownies enjoy outdoor activities and anything to do with making food. Every year the older girls have a weekend in Kent and all girls have the opportunity to come to day camp at Cudham Camp site

Brownies meet on Thursday evenings from 6.00 to 7.30.

Guides are young women aged 10 to 14 and for them its all about learning new skills, making your own decisions and having fun.  Guiding provides a safe environment to explore new possibilities and achieve personal goals while making friends and having adventures. And it’s up to each Guide to work out which opportunities are relevant for her, whether it’s improving her football skills, party planning or learning about independent living. Our guides participate ina wide range  of activities and camp every summer.

Guides meet on Friday evening from 6.15 to 8.00pm

There are waiting lists for Rainbows & Brownies so oif you are interested contact us for more information. Or come in to see us one evening.
