Girl Guides 75th Anniversary |
Price:
£5.00
Following the origin of the Boy Scouts in 1907 many girls took up Scouting. In 1909, a number of Girl Scouts attended the Boy Scout Rally in Crystal Palace Park. The girls told Robert Baden Powell that they wanted 'to do the same thing as the boys'. Guiding was introduced to respond to the demand.
In 1910 Robert Baden Powell formed the Girl Guides and asked his sister Agnes to look after the organisation.
This souvenr badge commemorates their 75th Anniversary held at Crystal Palace Park on 27 April 1985.
