We are part of Girlguiding UK, the leading charity for girls and young women in the UK.
Our Region is Girlguiding Cymru.
Thanks to our amazing volunteers we deliver life-changing adventures and opportunity for fun and friendship to over 1,900 members. We have units in towns and villages throughout Gwent.
We give girls and young women a voice and a space to be themselves.

There is also guidance on our Young Members policy
In February every year all Girlguiding members pay a membership fee (commonly called the census or subscription) which is our national membership. This money benefits Girlguiding at a local and national level as it covers necessary running costs of our UK and Regional offices, and ensures Girlguiding meets the needs of the girls at all times. It finances (amongst other things) the development of resources for girls and adults; insurance for all girls and adults for guiding activities, including our unit meetings; training for our volunteers and the provision for a support structure for our adult volunteers. How the UK uses it’s portion of the annual subscription
Girlguiding Gwent covers the unitary authorities of Monomouthshire, Blaenau Gwent, Newport, Torfaen and Caerphilly in south east Wales.
