What, you may ask, have members of Girlguiding been doing in a number of bus shelters? The answer is quite simple. They can be seen on the advertising posters that adorn the shelters in an attempt to raise public awareness of Girlguiding.
With 60 units across the Island, there is usually a unit near to the homes of girls wanting to join, but this is not always the case, and, in the larger towns, more units are required to accommodate those girls on waiting lists.
This advertising campaign is twofold: to invite new helpers and leaders to come forward, which would enable more girls to join in the fun of Girlguiding on the Island, and to increase the number of girls joining as, in some places, units are open with numbers below capacity.
