A summary of the Charity’s main activities to further its purposes for the public benefit and the main achievements in the year
We were delighted to have a full return to Girlguiding as it would have been pre Covid.
Activities this year have included outings to a local park, the cinema to see a Girlguiding UK showing of The Little Mermaid and a Girlguiding Ulster event at Belfast Zoo. Regular craft and games activities are always enjoyed by the girls.
The girls continued to work on the Rainbow programme completing their Take Action and Skills for my Future awards by working on activities throughout the year.
We had four Young Leaders working towards their Leadership Qualification who took on more responsibility for organising weekly meetings. All four leaders completed this qualification by the end of the guiding year.
There was no harm flowing from the Charities purposes and there was no private benefit.
