NAILSEA RAINBOWS - A brand new Rainbow unit

The Rainbow section is for girls aged 4-7 years old. We currently have two Rainbow units in Nailsea who are both very popular; both are full with very long waiting lists. Neither of these two units are able to take the majority of new girls who come onto their waiting list now before their 7th birthday!

Due to this, we are keen to open another rainbow unit to give more girls the opportunity to join Rainbows and start their Girlguiding journey. We need at least one Leader, and some Unit Helpers to make this possible.

Rainbows have a lot of fun earning badges, getting creative, being active and trying new things. This is a hands on age group who enjoy getting involved in the variety of activities offered to them. It is really rewarding watching them grow as they go through their time in Rainbows, then moving up to Brownies.

The new unit currently has not got any meeting arrangements decided yet. Once we have adults willing to become Leaders and Unit Helpers on board, we will work with them to decide when, how often and where unit meetings will take place.

We have two adult roles available: Leader and Unit Helper. A Girlguiding Leader is an adult who is working towards or completed the Leader Development Programme and a Unit Helper is an adult, not doing the Leader Programme, who is an asset to the unit by helping the Leaders.

We have been really busy in our unit meetings so far this term - starting it off with County Camp followed by getting into our activities and working on various badges.

Our units have been baking, getting creative with crafts, designing buildings, spaces and inventions, exploring space and nature, discovering how we can communicate, learning first aid, creating superheroes, working out budgeting for shopping, looking at road safety and planning routes. There is plenty more planned for the rest of term for everyone too!

We really need more volunteers to help give our members more opportunities for the fun activities we do. It is really rewarding volunteering with Girlguiding. Check out the Volunteer Recruitment tool to see details of what we need in Girlguiding Nailsea https://volunteer.girlguiding.org.uk/ or you can email [email protected].

We are looking forward to taking part in the Remembrance Parade again this year. The units taking part will be in touch with parents soon.

Nailsea Remembrance Sunday Parade – Sunday 8 November

Nailsea’s annual Remembrance Sunday Parade will take place on Sunday 8 November 2026, with the parade setting off at 10.20am from the Scout Hut on Hannah More Road.

The parade will travel along Hannah More Road, St Mary’s Grove and Church Lane before arriving at the War Memorial outside Holy Trinity Church, where a wreath-laying ceremony will take place.
🌺 Wreaths will be laid by local organisations including the Nailsea Air Cadets, Army Cadets, Scouts, Guides, Avon Fire Service, Nailsea Police, Nailsea Town Council, Nailsea & Backwell Rotary and many others.

📍 If you're attending
Members of the public are very welcome to line the route and pay their respects.

Please help us keep everyone safe:
🚗 Please do not park along the parade route.
🚫 Please do not use the Tithe Barn or Holy Trinity Church car parks.
👧 Parents dropping off children taking part in the parade can use the Brabantia car park on Blackfriars Road and then park elsewhere.

When the parade reaches the War Memorial, please keep the area immediately around it clear so those taking part can gather safely for the ceremony.

Your cooperation will help make sure this important Remembrance event is safe and respectful for everyone.

🌺 We look forward to seeing the Nailsea community come together to remember and honour those who served.
