Welcome to Girlguiding Surrey East

Girlguiding Surrey East is part of Girlguiding, the UK’s largest charity for girls and young women. We give girls space to be themselves and do amazing things. We empower girls and make sure each one of them can get involved – no matter what their background or ability.

We help all girls know they can do anything.

Whether your daughter wants to join rainbows, brownies, guides or rangers, or you are looking to volunteer yourself, start your girlguiding adventure today.

More about girlguiding Surrey East

Girlguiding Surrey East is one of 19 counties in guiding UK and part of the London and South East region (known as LaSER).

Our county is subdivided into 6 divisions: Reigate; Leith Hill; Leatherhead; Downs Heath; Godstone and Epsom each led by a division commissioner. In these areas, we have over 3,000 girls who mostly meet every week during the term time supported by over 900 volunteers making guiding happen.

We have four sections for young people:

Rainbows (4-7)
Brownies (7-10)
Guides (10-14)
Rangers (14-18)

For young women age 18-30,  girlguiding Inspire offers flexible guiding tailored to you needs and interests – there is a host of adventures and opportunities to be part of:  Get inspired here

There are many ways adults can become involved too, as well as welcoming new leaders, units need support in other ways such as helping with finances, administration, occasional help or sharing your skills.  Volunteer with us

The governance of the county is overseen by the County Executive and the rest of the county team. We oversee the finances and general running of the county. The constitution lays out the rules we must follow and which members are allowed to vote on important matters. Each year we must submit a financial report to the Charities Commission.
