1st Aith Rainbows and Brownies
- VO99737
Rainbows welcomes all girls from 4 to 7 years old for play, learning and tons of fun in a colourful, safe space. Brownies welcomes all girls from 7 to 10 years old for nonstop fun, learning and adventure.
The girls who attend Rainbows and Brownies in Aith are particularly fond of messy crafts and any games that gets them moving. Currently, we have 23 Rainbows and 26 Brownies who attend meaning that our meetings are busy and energetic. It also means that to run safely we need to ensure that we have enough volunteers to set up, operate our activities and attend to everyone’s needs.
Volunteering with us is a fantastic way to build confidence and grow skills. You can make a difference in the lives of girls however long you volunteer with us. This role is open to all genders.
You’ll get involved to help run fun weekly meetings with our adult leaders, where girls explore things that really matter in their lives. You could be building dens with 6-year-olds, discovering the wonders of space with 9-year-olds, or helping 12-year-olds create their own campaign.
You can set your own goals for your time with us – anything is possible!
Experience required
Anyone aged 13-17 who is working towards an externally recognised award can become a young external volunteer. You don’t have to be female. You can volunteer for the time you need to complete the volunteering section of the award.
You may be completely new to Girlguiding or have been involved when you were younger. If you used to be a Rainbow, Brownie or Guide you could return to your previous unit or try somewhere new.
You'll need to enjoy working with kids or young people and commit to going to meetings regularly. We understand people get busy, so if you need to take a break just have a chat with the unit leaders about how much time you can give.
