Girl Guides – Changing the World

From September 2008 – September 2009 Girlguiding UK teamed up with Plan UK as part of their centenary celebrations. Guides and Brownies learnt about Plan’s Because I am a Girl campaign, wrote messages to Gordon Brown calling for education for all girls and raised funds for Plan’s work in Liberia – supporting girls’ access to education.

Brownies learning about girls rights during a Because I am a Girl workshopGirlguiding UK challenged their members to take part in Plan UK photography project, ‘Take a Photo – Make a Difference’. The project culminated in a final competition and the commended and winning entries featured in a national exhibition in October 2009. To find out more about the exhibition click here. You can also view the 12 winning entries from four categories below.
