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 20 girls registered this year.
The girls worked hard and completed two themes (Know Myself/Respect & Skills for my Future/Live Smart Theme Award) & the Family Tree Interest Badge. 9 girls also completed their Bronze Award & 3 girls completed their Silver Award.
They also enjoyed doing crafts, games, cooking & a scavenger hunt. We also attended the Remembrance Day Service with our brownie, guide & ranger units & celebrated Thinking Day with our brownie unit. The girls who are moving up to brownies in September had a sleepover in May where they completed various crafts, had a special visit from some tortoise, chickens & a bearded lizard & finished the night watching a DVD. We also took the girls to Air-Tastic where the girls enjoyed a game of bowling & also had some food which included pizza, chicken goujons, chips & juice.
For our Christmas Good we took part in supporting the ‘Lisburn Food Bank’ in providing items to give to those who are less fortunate than ourselves.
There was no harm flowing from the Charities purposes and there was no private benefit.
