Peer Educators
Peer Educators, aged 14 - 25, are trained to deliver sessions on topics that matter to girls today.
Peer Educators draw on their own experiences to allow girls to fully engage and relate with them, empowering younger girls to combat issues they may face in life, equipping them with life-long skills.
Peer Educators run fun, safe and challenging sessions using resources developed with Expert Partners, such as Young Minds or Gendered Intelligence.
Peer Education Sessions are available for Brownies, Guides and Ranger Units.
Peer Educators can deliver sessions on:
- Think Resilient -?Created in partnership with Young Minds, this topic addresses the importance of mental wellbeing, teaching girls techniques to boost resilience and deal with challenging situations. ( View more details)
Be Well Minutes -? (60 for Brownies, 90 for Guides & Rangers) - Breaking Free - An exciting resource which focuses on helping girls identify and challenge stereotypes so they feel empowered to enjoy their hobbies, gain skills they're interested in and aspire to become whoever they want.

Take Action Minutes - (60 for Brownies, 90 for Guides & Rangers) - Safe the World - This topic tackles safety by looking at how: everyone experiences safety differently, how we can spot and deal with unsafe behaviours, and how we can empower everyone to become upstanders and campaign for a safer world.
