Brownies & Scouts
Brownies and Girlguides
Thursdays (term time only) at Rickards Hall, Edenbridge.
Brownies meet from 5.15pm to 6.45pm for girls age 7-10.
Guides meet from 7pm to 8.30pm for girls age 10-15.
“Girlguiding is slowly growing in Edenbridge,” says 1st Edenbridge Guides Leader, Steph Harrison. “We have just opened a new Brownie unit, and our Guide unit continues to grow. This has only been possible with support from the community, and the girls who want to be part of Girlguiding. Our supporters include Edenbridge Town Council, who awarded us a grant of just over £500 in 2024, and have also supported us previously. This supports enables girls to participate in activities that help to grow their confidence, share new experiences, learn new skills and learn that Girls Can Do Anything!”
We would really encourage families to find out more about what girlguiding has to offer, either via the website Girlguiding in West Kent website or www.facebook.com/GirlguidingKnoleDivision
Scouts
Edenbridge Scout Group supports four sections of scouting, from Beavers through to Explorer Scouts.
Scouting is available in Edenbridge for boys and girls from the ages of 6 to 25 and those “young at heart” who share their skills, within specific sections to meet the needs of the different age ranges, to provide adventurous and life-changing experiences for young and ‘not so young’ people.
The 1st Edenbridge Scouts take part in many local events such as Remembrance Day and Bonfire Night.
