Girl Guides

We are a group of girls aged 10 to 15 years.  We meet on Wednesday evenings from 7.45pm – 9.15pm.
We all wear a uniform that we choose ourselves, and a neckerchief in Company Colours.

We are self-governing, with help from our Guiders. We have our own Unit Guidelines that we discuss and revise each September. We work in small groups, called Patrols, or as a whole Unit, depending on the activity.

We have two Guide Leaders: Claire Bramley (Guider in Charge) tel: 479591 and Christine Saunders (Assistant Guider).

We currently have 20 members, but will need more Guiders (age 18 or over) if we expand to over 24 members. If you are interested in becoming a Guider or if you would like to join us as a Guide, please call 479591 (before 7pm). Fees are £15 per term for being a guide.

Activities include: Weekend Camp, Weekend Sleepover, bowling, aerobics, beauty evening, etc.

Clutton falls within Wansdyke District Scouts, and there are Groups within the District at Keynsham, Saltford, High Littleton, Paulton, Radstock, Peasedown St John, and Midsomer Norton and we have regular joint events with the other Groups.

Scouts is up to 20 members with 4 girls. Beavers has 27 members. Cubs has 12 members so more members would be welcome.

The Group took part in the International Jamboree on the Trail on 13 May. The Hike from Ubley through the Chew Valley and up to Stanton Drew took about 8 hours, and was about 12 miles. At the end, three new Scouts were invested inside the Stone Circle.
