Keeping your child safe

We check our volunteers

We carry out compulsory recruitment checks on all volunteers who work directly with girls.

We take safeguarding seriously

We have a dedicated national safeguarding team who work with our volunteers managing all allegations, concerns and disclosures following our safeguarding policy and procedure.

We carefully train our leaders

Our leader development programme makes sure all our unit leaders and assistant leaders are trained in safety and safeguarding.

We keep girls safe

We follow risk assessments, ensure there are enough volunteers for each group, and that they’re insured to cover all our activities. Read more information on how we keep girls safe in and outside of their unit’s meeting place.

We follow a code of conduct

We expect all adults in Girlguiding to follow our code of conduct.

We welcome all girls

We’re here for people from all backgrounds, including disabled people, LGBTQ+ people, people of colour and those of all religions or philosophical beliefs and none.
