whole.					Over the years, face to face meetings have
					been key to the way Girlguiding has
					delivered our programme to give girls and
					young women a space where they can be
					themselves, have fun, build brilliant
					friendships, gain valuable life skills and
					make a positive difference to their lives and
					their communities.
					In March 2020, at the time ofthe first
					national lockdown, we wondered how
					guiding would survive without our weekly
					meetin s.

Although the weekly meetings stopped,
Girlguiding continued.
Within our homes, we displayed candles	in
our windows on Sunday evenings between
19:10and 20:10to remember the first 100
years of Girlguiding (1910—2010). Some
members wore their uniform for the weekly
'clap for carers'. Leaders kept in contact	by
emailing or posting activities to girls in their
units.
Girlguiding UK quickly launched
'Adventures at Home' on You Tube, and
held an online Girlguiding Festival in May.
Girlguiding Cymru launched the Presidents
Challenge and Broneirion Bounce Back
Challenge to keep us active and engaged
with the rest ofWales.
Girlguiding Anglesey received a grant from
a local authority Covid Response Fund
towards a Summer mailshot which
acknowledged the impact on the mental
health of girls and volunteers and
suggested activities to do at home.
Over the summer, a few units met again—
first outdoors and then indoors. One
rainbow wore her uniform all weekend
before her first meeting as she was so
excited.
But we mainly stayed online, such as for
the scavenger hunt at the Summer Solstice
instead of our usual campfire at Anglesey
Guide Centre.
In November we received a further grant for
a second mailshot in which we sent
information to parents / carers, and invited
girls to our first virtual sleepover: 'Wildlife	in
Winter'. Girls made their own 'dens' to
sleep in, and activities were suggested for
them to do at home. Some joined in the
Zoom meetings, and girls snuggled down	in
their home-made 'dens' for a bedtime story
read by one oftheir leaders.
Towards the end ofthe year, some
Rainbows had a visit from Father
Christmas on their Zoom meeting,
Girlguiding UK organised an online Panto,
and we had a Winter Solstice Zoom call
with members of BGO from England,
Wales, France, Sweden, Turkey, Malaysia.
Creating exceptional experiences for girls
and oun women was reall challen in

under the restrictions of2020, but our
volunteer leaders rose to the challenge.
Rewarding volunteer experience
Plans to meet other leaders at conferences
and residential events were cancelled	in
2020, and leaders adapted to Zoom. The
quality of our online conferences and
trainings was excellent, which makes us
feel supported as volunteers with
Girlguiding.
During 2020, there were trainings for
commissioners on being a Trustee,
Property Management, Communicating
effectively and Managing conflict.
2020 was also the year when Safe Space
training was brought up to date for all
volunteers. Each volunteer or occasional
helper in contact with girls had to complete
the level of safeguarding training needed
for their role, and the training team put		in a
huge amount of effort to provide enough
courses for everyone.
But it's not all trainings and work in
Girlguiding. Adult volunteers had some
social events —quizzes and short, socially-
distanced walks. We joined in various
challenges such as the Girlguiding
Pembrokeshire walk to Broneirion, the
GGCymru Presidents Challenge and the
Broneirion Bounce Back. These
challenges gave a reason to go out for	daily
walks during lockdowns which had a
positive impact on our wellbeing.
We were aware that 2020 was very difficult
for our volunteers, and always emphasised
that no-one should feel under pressure		to
do more than they feel able to. The year
emphasised that we need more volunteers
to build supportive and friendly teams
around each unit.
Volunteering to do something for others		is
known to have a positive impact on our
wellbeing. We need volunteers not just		to
work with the girls in units, but in supportive
roles such as treasurers, administrators,
commissioners or team leaders, and
people to clean equipment before 8 after
each meeting!
Inclusive and impacfful
The third theme in the Girlguiding's new
Strategy is about telling people what we		do.

During 2020, information was regularly
shared with volunteers in a newsletter sent
by email. Itwas meant to be issued each
term, but was sent each month during the
lockdown, just to offer support and
encouragement.
We planned improvements to our online
presence during the year, with the
development of a bilingual website for the
County and launched on St David's Day
2021. The regular posts on our public
Facebook Page can now be read from the
website by anyone not on social media.
We were unable to use Anglesey Guide
Centre, our County house in the old
National School near Penrhoslligwy. The
Centre Manager and her team did many
maintenance and improvement projects
there, and during the summer it was
opened for families and small groups to
use.
At our Annual Review of2020 {held online
in 2021), all our leaders in 2020 received	a
certificate in recognition that they had
'shown great determination, resilience,
enthusiasm, imagination and motivation	in
helping keep Girlguiding Anglesey going during the Covid-19 pandemic of2020. '
