Girlguiding Unveils First Major Uniform Redesign Since 1990
The new range includes 30 garments and 15 accessories, and a survey of 2,000 girls found 93% prefer choosing how to style themselves.
- Girlguiding chief executive Felicity Oswald launched the charity's first major uniform redesign in more than 30 years on Monday. The new range aims to "foster a true sense of belonging" while offering modern, practical designs.
- A survey of 2,000 girls aged six to 16 conducted in June found 93% feel most comfortable when choosing their own style. This finding directly informed the redesign's emphasis on personal expression and choice.
- Created by HemmingwayDesign, the range comprises 30 garments and 15 accessories featuring secret pockets and convertible badge sashes. Members need only wear a top to be considered "in uniform," allowing them to pair items with their own clothes.
- The redesign launches six weeks before a policy change takes effect, limiting membership to "girls and young women" following a 2025 Supreme Court ruling on biological sex. This timing marks a significant shift in the organisation's approach.
- Oswald said girls in guiding are 30% more confident, and the uniform aims to further nurture that confidence. The organisation hopes to reach more members by 2030, building their confidence so they know they can do anything.
