Hi Everyone,
I have been given the amazing opportunity through INTOPS WAGGS Girl guiding to participate in a volunteering trip to Sangam India in August 2026!
The purpose of this trip is to participate in a Community Action Project working with one of Sangam's community Partner organisations as well as meeting Girl guides and scouts from other countries and together learning about the WAGGGS Leadership Model and how we can grow our leadership today at the WAGGGS World wide centre in Pune and how we can be part of global initiatives. It will be an opportunity to learn about Ancient and Modern India and their traditions.
Our Journey will also involve a trip around the Golden Triangle, to Agra, Jaipur and Dehli.
This adventure will grow me as a person, my understanding of the world around me as well as improve my personal social and life skills. However this Journey starts here, raising the funds to attend. In order to do this I have set myself 2 goals, over the next 12months I am going to walk 1000 miles. (This challenge works on my physical and mental wellbeing and gets me more at one with nature ) and I am pledging 100 days of volunteering between now and June 2026. This is going to test my communication, confidence organisational skills as I will be doing this whilst being a Girl guiding young leader, being part of the ACF, doing my silver D of E and studying for my GCSE's !!
You can follow my exciting journey through my Instagram and facebook page. I would be extremely grateful if you could spare a little to help me fund my trip and reach my goals.
Thank you in advance!!
