Girlguiding Midlands young leader and peer education weekend

Who, what, where and why?

On 14 and 15 September, young leaders and peer educators gathered at the Girlguiding Nottinghamshire county HQ and Elton campsite for a weekend of learning, fun and team building. The aim of the weekend was to discuss the new young leader programme, Safe The World peer education training, learning new skills, and to meet other like-minded individuals.

With thanks to the Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) Uniformed Youth Fund, Girlguiding Midlands was able to put on this event for 96 girls.

If you're interested in becoming a peer educator or young leader, you can find more information on our pages for young volunteers.
