Overview

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Girlguiding UK is the national Guiding organisation of the United Kingdom. Guiding began in the UK in 1910 after Robert Baden-Powell asked his sister Agnes to start a group especially for girls that would be run along similar lines to Scouting for Boys. The Guide Association was a founder member of the World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts (WAGGGS) in 1928. Today the Association has more than 600,000 members and continues to be the largest girl only youth organisation in the UK. The Girl Guides in the UK are officially The Guide Association and go under the operating name of Girlguiding UK . Although Scout groups in the UK must now accept girls as of January 2007, this has not affected the numbers of girls joining Girlguiding UK. At present about one in four of all eight-year-old girls in the UK are Brownies. 50% of UK women have been involved with Guiding at some point in their lives.
