Trefoil Guild
The Trefoil Guild has over 20,000 members nationally and is made up of women over the age of 18 who have a connection with Girlguiding.
The aims of the Trefoil Guild are:
- To live in the spirit of Girlguiding
- To offer practical help to Girlguiding
- To support guiding worldwide
- To carry that spirit of Girlguiding into the communities in which members live and work
Trefoil is open to all, including men, and you can join as long as you agree with these principles and are over the age of 18. You can continue to be a commissioner, a leader or a Unit Helper and join the Trefoil Guild too!
Joining the Trefoil means that you can challenge yourself with the Dark Horse and the Discovery Award. It also means that you get to choose to do activities that you are interested in such as trips, holidays and a whole lot more, as well as having a chance to socialise with fellow adult members.
We are incredibly proud that Girlguiding Greater Manchester West was presented with the Queen's Award for Voluntary Service in 2019 for the comfort bag scheme which was the initiative of one of our members Pat Mayle.
