1st and 4th Rainhill Guides have made the most of the sunshine this term, packing their programmes with brilliant outdoor adventures.

Both units teamed up with our Brownie groups for outdoor challenges and a camp‑skills evening — thank you to our Guides for giving the younger girls a glimpse into what lies ahead.

This term also brought new experiences: a weekend camp at Guys Farm in Lancaster, a map‑reading skills evening, building a stretcher, outdoor cooking, and joining in with Woodbank’s 45th Birthday celebrations alongside Merseyside Guides.

Guides are aged 10 to 14 years and meet on Wednesdays 7.30pm to 9pm and Thursdays 7.45pm to 9pm during term time.

🎉 Huge Congratulations to Diane Davies! 🎉

We’re incredibly proud of Diane Davies, our Division Commissioner and dedicated Rainbow & Brownie Leader, who was nominated by a fellow guider to attend the Girlguiding Celebrates event earlier this month.

Held in London’s West End, the afternoon recognised outstanding volunteers who go above and beyond to make a real difference in their communities. 💙

Thank you, Diane, for everything you do. Your commitment and energy inspire us all! 🙌🏻

✨ Rainhill Brownies Making a Big Difference This Month! ✨

Our 2nd and 5th Rainhill Brownie Units have had an action‑packed month — full of community spirit, courage, and kindness.

🐍 Brave Brownies!
The girls showed amazing confidence meeting all our visitors from Dylan's Reptile Time.

🚁 Supporting NW Air Ambulance
At this year’s Rainhill Gala, the Brownies proudly helped on the NW Air Ambulance stall to complete their Charity Badge, after fundraising for them throughout the year. They also worked hard helping on our own Brownie stall.

📚 100+ Books Shared Around the Village
Over 100 books were hidden and shared around Rainhill for families to find, enjoy, and pass on. This has become a much‑loved annual tradition in our calendar — spreading joy, reading, and a sense of community.

🐶 Next Mission: Sponsor a Guide Dog Puppy!
The Brownies have now chosen their next fundraising challenge: raising money to sponsor a Guide Dog puppy.

🌟 Well done Brownies — we’re so proud of you! 🌟

🌼 A MONTH OF MESSY FUN! 🌼

April has been full of hands‑on creativity, new members, and plenty of joyful mess across all our units!

🌈 Rainbows
Our Rainbows welcomed new members and enjoyed making gloop and working on their First Aid Skills Builder by completing the Mend a Friend activity — cleaning grazes, applying plasters, and bandaging their dolls.

💛 Brownies 💙 Guides & 🤍 Rangers
These units also welcomed new members and joined together for a lively, messy evening!
They cooked pancakes over tealights, made lip balm, played a water team game, created bubbles, and tried marble painting — with lots of laughter and noise along the way. Some Guides also completed a Skills Builder using paints.

🌺 Trefoil Guild
The Trefoil Guild enjoyed an entertaining talk, Tales of a Customs Officer, shared by Brian Topping — a wonderful evening full of stories and smiles.
