Welcome to Our Website! Take a look around and get in touch today!
At Guides our uniform is important to us and all of our guides should wear theirs smartly each week. Please see the uniform options for Harvington Guides below. All uniform can be bought from https://www.girlguidingshop.co.uk/. We do, however, encourage our members to think about sustainability and take a look in charity shops or second hand websites such as vinted to buy their uniform too. We have a small amount of second hand uniform for sale directly from the unit. Take a look here.
We are proud to be a uniformed organisation, it is one of the many parts of Girlguiding that are special and brings us together as a group. Unless specified, all of our Guides should wear their uniform to all unit meetings, trips and events. Guides can sew their badges onto their uniforms, a camp blanket or another place of their choosing. Find badge guidance here.
Tops: Girls can choose between two tops, a short sleeved polo or a long-sleeved top. If they are choosing to wear a Guides dress, this can be worn with a uniform or plain top.
Bottoms: Girls can choose between the Guides skirt, dress or Harvington Guides navy leggings. Girls may also choose to wear their own non-uniformed bottoms.
On formal occasions (eg. Remembrance sunday) girls will need to wear either a Guides dress/skirt or smart navy school skirt/trousers.
Jumpers: Guides should also wear a uniform jumper and they can choose between our own navy hoodie/zipped hoodie/fleece or the official Guides zipped jacket. For Girlguiding events such as Internationals or International community experience trips, Guides will need to wear the official one. For our unit meetings, trips and residentials many of our Guides prefer our unit navy jumper as it is comfier, cheaper and can be worn more outside of Guides.
Our own Unit Branded hoodies/fleeces cost £16.99+ and can be purchased at the link below (yourschooluniform.com) and official guides jackets cost £23.50 can be purchased from the Girlguiding shop (also linked below).
Harvington Guides wear our own unit neckers. These must be worn smartly each week and can be fastend with either a friendship knot or a woggle. Our neckers have just gone through a refresh, being carefully designed by the Guides themselves! Each Guide receives a necker when they join. Replacement neckers cost £7.00. You will only need to purchase a necker if you loose the one you were given. See the video here for how to tie your Necker.
For Guides who would prefer a woggle, they can choose one of the below options, preferably in Royal blue.
Young Leaders should wear a young leader polo top or Rangers uniform. They can choose to wear a young leader hoodie too. Our young leaders also wear our necker, along with Guides and adult Leaders. Young Leaders can wear a badge tab to display their promise and other pin badges.
