Guiding worldwide

​

As part of a worldwide movement Girlguiding allows its members to connect with sister Guides around the world. The Girlguiding Derbyshire International team wants to offer all its members the chance to experience the many and varied cultures, opinions and viewpoints from around the globe. Whether this is through activities and challenges in the unit, to meeting and hosting international friends at Peak 2015, or taking part in international camps or service projects around the world.

​

Brownies, Guides and Ranger members can travel abroad with Girlguiding. A variety of international visits take place each year, some organised by Units, Districts or Divisions, some by Counties and some organised at Region level.

​

In the past few years Girlguiding Derbyshire members have taken part in service and community development projects in Malawi, Kenya, Mexico and Sri Lanka, unit trips to Switzerland and the USA and taken part in a canoe expedition in the Czech Republic, been participants at a World Scout Jamboree in Japan, inter-railed across Europe visiting 9 countries in 2 weeks and Winter activities in Kandersteg.
