South Hylton - Down Your Way

The senior section of Girlguiding.uk celebrated the launch of its centenary year at a spectacular event at Alexandra Palace. The 2nd South Hylton Senior Section girls and Guides had a wonderful day taking part in a vast array of activities along with 7,000 girls from all over the country. The unit is very grateful for the financial support given for this event by Community Chest funding from St Anne's Ward.

The 2nd South Hylton Guides had a great time at the centenary celebrations at Alexandra Palace.

The 2nd South Hylton Guides held a presentation evening to celebrate the achievement of Georgia, Jessica, Alex and Alexandra in gaining their Baden Powell Challenge Award. This is the highest award a Guide can achieve and involves exploring healthy lifestyles, global awareness, discovery, skills and relationships and celebrating diversity followed by a residential adventure.
