GOAL – mental well-being

We know that Girlguiding girls are up to 23% more confident than the UK girls’ average, yet still the UK faces a growing mental health crisis in children and young people.

We want to hear from our young members about their mental well being. We’ve designed some questions for them to answer, it’s up to your unit leadership team to decide how to deliver this with your girls – you know them best. Once you’ve got your answers, head back here and complete the feedback forms at the bottom of the page before 31 July 2024 – then we’ll send your badges out.

There’s a range of resources to support you in talking about mental well-being with your girls –
