2nd Moira Brownies enjoying a special Girlguiding day!
World Thinking Day is a celebration of 10 million girls worldwide that has taken place on every 22 February since 1926. It remains a day for all Girl Guides and Girl Scouts to think of each other and celebrate their sisters all around
In 1926, delegates from Guide and Girl Scout organisations across the world met in the USA for the 4th world conference. They decided to create a day for Girl Guides and Girl Scouts to think about others around the world and celebrate being part of an international movement.
The 22 February was chosen as the date because it was the joint birthday of Robert and his wife Olave Baden-Powell, who were both instrumental in establishing Girlguiding and shaping its formative years. Olave was the first ever chief guide. And so, 'thinking day' was born.
Our units are thriving and always looking for adults to help us give the girls a unique experience, we are always happy to have help for a short time or long term! DM this page for more info or visit the Girlguiding website for more details or to register your interest.
