Rangers are young women aged 14–18 years old. Rangers have independence and friendship woven through everything they do. Being a Ranger opens up a world of exciting challenges and opportunities to try new things, from exploring new skills and hobbies to planning trips and even travelling abroad.
Welcome to Cornwall Rangers!
Rangers have the freedom to shape their own programme and take part in activities they care about. They meet regularly with their local group and can enjoy trips, camps and events across the county and further afield. Whether it’s outdoor adventure, creative projects, community action or spending time with friends, Rangers gives young women the space to grow in confidence in a space they feel safe.
Rangers can work towards a wide range of interest badges that reflect their passions and interests, from Festival Goer to Self Care, which contribute towards earning awards that celebrate commitment and achievement.
There are even opportunities to gain Girlguiding leadership awards and complete nationally recognised programmes including the prestigious Queen’s Guide Award and the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award.
In Cornwall, Rangers can take part in county-wide events including activity days and camps such as Camp K. They can also get involved in local community opportunities like helping with the Messenger Service at the Royal Cornwall Show.
Rangers is about challenge, friendship and opportunity, supporting young women as they prepare for the next stage of their journey.
“Guiding gives me a much needed social space that gets even more special as I get older.”
Zoe, Ranger, aged 18
"Having a space to discover who you are when you’re a teenage girl is really important.
I’m proud to be in a team that creates a space where our young members are always encouraged to have a go and find strength in themselves and as a team. And the bonus is, when I walk through the door to Guides and Rangers, I leave behind work and adult life, so it’s a mental health recharge for me too!"
