"The Trefoil Guild offers companionship, the opportunity to try different things with like-minded people and the chance to be of use to others".
Elizabeth says...
"The best thing about The Trefoil Guild is that it is so varied. We give service by fundraising, working in local hospitals, helping out at Guide events and in so many other ways. We also enjoy camps. outings and walks, and many of us are soon going on a cruise around the Greek islands!"
What is the Trefoil Guild? A non-uniformed section of The Guide Association. The Trefoil Guild enables men and woman to maintain links with Guiding. It hopes to keep alive the spirit of the Guide Promise and Law and offers practical help to Guiding.
Who may join? The Trefoil Guild offers a warm welcome to everyone, male or female, aged 18 or over, whether or not they have previously been connected with the Guide movement. Full membership is open to anyone willing to make or renew the Guide/Scout Promise and affiliated membership to those who don't wish to do so, provided they subscribe to the aims and principles of the Guide association. There's also associate membership for any adult still active in the Guide/Scout association.
Members of over 1,100 local Guilds throughout the UK enjoy all the tremendous benefits of belonging to the guide association. Many Guilds activities result in positive benefit to the community, but as any Guild member will tell you, a large part of the programme is devoted to having plain old-fashioned fun!
So if you have recently left The Guide Association and want to stay involved with the Movement, or if you've never been a member but would like to support Guiding in your area, The Trefoil Guild is for you. It's a chance to make new friends help other people, develop your own skills and, most of all, have fun... just as Guides do.
Why not give us a try? We're waiting to meet you.
