Or sometimes they simply have fun and try new things with friends.<\/p>\n<p>Girls take what they do in guiding with them as they grow up. Everything from working in a team, to taking the lead, to speaking out on issues they care about. It helps them develop the skills and confidence to become the young women they want to be. And to make a difference to the world around them.<\/p>\n<h3>\n\t\tGirlguiding is split into four sections, depending on your daughter or the age of the girl.
