A summary of the Charity’s main activities to further its purposes for the public benefit and the main achievements in the year

We had approx. 24 girls in the unit over the year. The Brownies took part in various activities during the year as part of the Girlguiding programme and working toward Girlguiding theme awards. The activities included skill builders, badge work & activities that were part of theme awards e.g., take action, be well, express myself. All the activities increased the girl’s confidence, taught them new skills & the importance of having good fun. Activities included craft activities, parties, games, random acts of kindness, visiting the pantomime at Christmas time, had an outing to airtastic, litter picking, taking part in a sponsored walk, The highlight of the year for some was the residential weekend away at GGU Lorne estate

There was no private benefit or harm flowing from the charities purpose.
