STAFFORDSHIRE COUNTY GUIDE ASSOCIATION 

The charity objectives are to enable girls to mature into confident, capable and caring women, who are able to make the most of their potential in career, home and personal life and be willing as citizens to contribute to their community and the wider world. Members of Girlguiding Staffordshire are encouraged to "learn by doing" through the "Guiding Method" which has five distinct elements.
