1st Hemingbrough Rainbows
Young People
We want to take the whole unit to Waddow house in Lancashire for a magical adventure. We need money for the coach and cost of the event.
About this cause
Our organisation is part of the girl guiding group and provides a safe learning place as well as adventures for girls aged 5 - 7. We are all volunteers who run the unit of currently 16 girls in our local village hall. We aim to provide them with a strong sense of identity, skills for life and give them new opportunities. Girl guiding provide a core ideas for all those involved to follow including making a promise to always do their best. We try and instill a sense of community and use local services to educate the girls in anything from fire safety to animal welfare. The girls can earn badges through completing a serious of challenges and they take immense pride in displaying them. The volunteers we have dedicate many hours to the group especially on a weekend and always with enthusiasm.
How this cause brings people in the community together
We want this opportunity for the girls to have a unique experience & to be part of something special. As a unit within a small village we aim to be inclusive of all those around us & we bring together children from all backgrounds & those with additional needs to participate in activities usually beyond their reach. We want the girls to be inspired & that will in turn drive the community forward.
