Girlguiding Dumfries and Galloway launches across region

It’s been an exciting time for Girlguiding across the county, as Girlguiding Dumfriesshire, Girlguiding Stewartry of Kirkcudbright, and Girlguiding Wigtownshire, have merged to form Girlguiding Dumfries and Galloway.

Rainbows, Brownies, Guides, Rangers, Young Leaders, Leaders, Trefoil Guild, and many more volunteers across the County are celebrating the merger with D&G-opoly, a county wide game that sees members out and about celebrating all that is great about the area we live in.

We aim to give all girls the space and opportunities they need to thrive, grow and become confident young women through fun, friendship, challenge and adventure, and this merger will help facilitate that.”
