About Us
Locations
Girlguiding Royal Berkshire is part of South West England Region which stretches from Berkshire to Cornwall and includes Jersey, Guernsey, the Isle of Wight and the Isles of Scilly.
The County is divided into 10 areas known as Divisions as shown on the map. Some Divisions are also split into smaller areas called Districts. All of these have Rainbow, Brownie, Guide and Ranger groups, known as units. We have over 300 units across the county, so there will be one close to you.
