Young Leader Programme

Young Leader Coordinator - Sian Betteridge

The Young Leader Development Programme is for girls aged 14-17 who want to gain leadership skills.  Young External Volunteers, volunteering in Girlguiding as part of their Duke of Edinburgh Award, can also take part in the Young Leader Development Programme.

The programme consists of a welcome leaflet and 12 modules.  There is a badge for completing the Welcome leaflet, and for every 4 modules completed after that there is a badge and a certificate. More information can be found here, (A welcome leaflet,  the module task sheets and tracker will be sent new Young Leaders/Young External Volunteers in their welcome pack ).
