Annual Membership

Each February, all members of Girlguiding UK pay an annual membership fee, often referred to as the subscription or census fee. This contribution supports guiding at both local and national level, helping to ensure that girls and young women continue to enjoy safe, inspiring and high-quality experiences across the UK.

The membership fee helps cover the essential running costs of UK and Regional offices, including Girlguiding Cymru, and enables Girlguiding to meet the changing needs of its members.

It also funds a wide range of vital services and resources, including:

  • the development of programme resources and activities for girls and volunteers
  • insurance cover for all members during guiding activities, including regular unit meetings
  • training and development opportunities for volunteers
  • the support systems and guidance that help volunteers deliver safe, enjoyable and rewarding experiences for girls and young women.
