The following resources are owned by the county and are available for members within the county to use within their Guiding units and Divisions.
It is important that anything borrowed is cared for, logged in and out and any problems reported. Borrowers need to consider storing things safely when in transit or not in use. When arranging pick ups or drop offs, please ensure you stick to arranged days/times or make contact if you are no longer going to be able to make it.
Recruitment Boxes
The Growth Team have put together some recruitment boxes for use at fairs, carnivals, and other events where you have the opportunity to hold a recruitment stall. These have proved very popular and we’ve received some very positive feedback.
The county currently has two recruitment boxes, which are available to borrow from the Trefoil Centre, and they contain a range of resources to help you promote Girlguiding in your community.
Contents include a tablecloth, bunting, a camp blanket (with badges including programme badges), a full set of handbooks, recruitment posters, postcards and leaflets, and bookmarks, stickers and chatterboxes to giveaway – and a bubble machine to attract attention!
