Girl Guides Australia

Guides are girls and young women from all cultures, faith and traditions aged from five to 17. We also provide a program for young women aged 18 -- 30 known as the Olave program.

Empowering girls and young women has been our mission since the organisation began 100 years ago and we continue to achieve this by helping girls and young women to be their best -- whatever their ability or background.

As part of a worldwide movement, with 10 million members in 145 countries, our program is aligned with important global initiatives such as the United Nations' Millennium Development Goals. By participating, girls and young women get to make a difference locally, nationally and globally.

Girls who are Guides see fun, friendship and adventure. We see tomorrow's leaders -- girls and young women who are learning new skills, working in teams, achieving goals, improving communities and growing in confidence.
