We have put together suggestions and ideas of places you can visit but it is far from an exhaustive list, and you are welcome to come up with your own ideas. There is no minimum number of places you need to visit in each area. We would love for you to share photos of what you get up to as it may give others ideas we haven’t thought of! You can aim to visit every area or only a couple. In your own area, why not try to visit something that you haven’t done before? Please share your ideas and places you visit to the Girlguiding Derbyshire Leaders page.
​
Parts of the pack that are underlined take you straight to a website to find out more about that location.
​
The challenge is open to everyone involved with Girlguiding and girls can continue to work towards it as they move through the sections.
​
Some of the suggested activities will involve various levels of walking. At the end of this pack are some walking myth busters so that you can ensure you have the right qualifications.
Why not incorporate a sleepover while visiting an area? Our approved venues list can be provided by contacting the office - office@girlguidingderbyshire.org
Badges can be ordered by clicking the 'CLICK HERE' button under the badge you would like to order on our website - www.girlguidingderbyshire.org/cc-challenge

VISUAL ARTS CHALLENGE
​
What is the Challenge?
Record any positive experiences you have had during Lockdown on any visual medium. This could be a vlog, blog, photo, video, drawing, collage… whatever you want to do.
As we start to return to face to face meetings it’s a great time to reflect on the positive experiences we have had during the lockdown. Whether that is an increased awareness of nature, discovering your local area, having time to re connect with friends, a good old sort out at home, a charitable venture, more family time, learning new skills such as using Zoom or anything else that you may not either have had chance to do or was an unexpected positive from this unusual time.
​
What will we do to help?
We will post links, tips and videos to our social media pages.
Once you have completed your challenge, please share your visual art on our social media channels and you can apply for your badge.

ENVIRONMENTAL CHAMPION CHALLENGE
What is the Challenge?
As part of the CC Team Challenge, we're bringing you the Environmental Champion Challenge.
​
Show that you have done something that will have a positive impact on the environment. It can be something local to you,
in your own home or global.
​
You can do it as an individual, with your Unit, District or Area.
SOCIAL ACTION WEEK CHALLENGE - OCTOBER 2021
What is the Challenge?
As part of the CC Team Challenge, we're bringing you Social Action Week, where you can help your local community in any way you wish. The focus week is w/c 11th October, but it can be done anytime and we have come up with some ideas if you need some inspiration!
​
Donate to your local Food Bank - Make food parcels to send or contact them to see how else your unit can help via The Trussell Trust website. Have a discussion in your unit about useful items that could go in a food parcel.
Community Poo Bags/Carrier Bags - Using a large plastic bottle, make a holder to store carrier bags/poo bags and display it in your area. Why not advertise your unit on them? Keep them stocked or remove them once they've been used. If you’re unsure on how to make one, have a look on Poo bag dispenser video or the ‘Instructables’ website.
Support local care homes - Contact your local care home and ask for a list of residents for members of your unit to write too. If you have Rainbows/Brownies, they could also draw pictures! You could also ask if there’s any other ways you can be of assistance!
​
Whatever you choose to do, don’t forget to share it on local Girlguiding social media and in local news outlets or let your Area Growth and Social Media Reps know (ask your DC's if you're not sure who these are)!
​
If you have any questions, or would like to get in touch with us, please email socialmedia@girlguidingderbyshire.org

SCOTCH EGGS WITH REBECCA
Hi my name is Rebecca Wing and I’m fourteen years old. During lockdown I have enjoyed taking part in 1st Somercotes Guides and 1st Derbyshire Virtual Rangers zoom sessions. I was really sad when I heard that Peak was cancelled but I enjoyed the Peak Lockdown challenge and joining in with the campover. I really enjoy cooking at home and at school. At home I cook tea most days and at school I am taking GCSE catering. For my demo video I have decided to make scotch eggs, here are the ingredients if you would like to have a go.
Scotch Egg Ingredients
​
5 large eggs
300g good quality pork sausagemeat
1 tsp black peppercorns, crushed
1/40g cooked ham, shredded
25g sage, apple and onion stuffing mix
1 tsp chopped sage
1 tsp chopped parsley
100g plain flour, seasoned, plus extra for dusting
100g dried breadcrumbs (preferably paxo)
Sunflower oil, for frying
MUG PIZZAS WITH HARRIET
Hello, my name is Harriet and I am the District Commissioner for Mickleover, where I am also a leader for 3rd Mickleover Rainbows. I love to cook but often there is too much leftover, so mug baking is perfect as you get one pot portions and don’t have to share!
Pizza in a mug Ingredients
​
3 tablespoons plain flour
1/4 teaspoon baking soda (or baking powder)
Pinch of salt
2 tablespoons milk
1 tablespoon oil
1 tablespoon tomato purée
A splash of water
1 - 2 tablespoons of grated cheese (depending how cheesey you like it)
Plus a small amount of topping (optional) , for example, pinch of chilli flakes, oregano, small pieces of ham + pineapple etc
A microwaveable mug and a small bowl to mix the purée in and fork to mix
DRIP CAKE MASTERCLASS WITH LOUISA
The ingredients will vary depending on the size of your tins, this recipe is for a cake made in 2 eight inch tins.
Essential kit
2 eight inch tins
Greaseproof paper
Scales
Spatula/ wooden spoon
Hand mixer/ stand mixer (a wooden spoon or spatula will work as well if you don’t have either)
Flat plate or cake board
​
For the sponges
275g (10oz) butter, softened (I use half butter and half Stork baking block) plus extra for greasing
275g (10oz) sugar
275g (10oz) self-raising flour
If making chocolate: 50g (2oz) cocoa powder (I use half cocoa powder and half hot chocolate powder)
5 eggs
For the buttercream
250g (9oz) butter, softened
500g (18oz) icing sugar
If making chocolate: Melted chocolate
For the decoration
100g (4oz) chocolate
Half to 1 teaspoon of vegetable oil (add it in a bit at a time, you want your chocolate to be slightly runnier than normal melted chocolate but too much will make it too thin and it’ll run down the cake too much)
Chocolates/ sweets of your choice
Once you have prepared your meal for someone else, please share your pictures on our social media channels and you can apply for your badge.
