What is The Girls' Brigade?

The Girls' Brigade (GB) is a Christian, international charity working alongside girls and young women of every background, ability and culture. Since our foundation in 1893, Girls' Brigade has become known world-wide as a fun, interesting, challenging and relevant provider of activities, skills, care and Christian love for hundreds of thousands of young people.

GB is lead by Christian women from local churches. These leaders are trained volunteers who are committed to providing a regular meeting time of activities and skills for girls and young women. GB groups (companies) usually meet on a weekday evening based in a local church, centre or school.

World-wide (GB operates in around 60 countries at present) the charity seeks to enable girls and young women to develop in confidence, ability, friendship and citizenship, and is committed to nurturing the unique value of every girl in our care.

GB Aim and Motto:

The international Aim of Girls' Brigade is to help girls to become followers of the Lord Jesus Christ, and through reverence, self control and a sense of responsibility to find true enrichment of life.

The GB motto, known by girls all over the world reads: Seek Serve and Follow Christ.

The way in which GB is led varies in different countries around the world, reflecting the diverse cultures in which GB works.

We, at Friars, currently meet on a Wednesday night starting at 5.15pm.
