'In your element' challenge

Welcome to our Girlguiding Gloucestershire county challenge "In your element"

The challenge

This challenge is based around the 4 elements - fire, earth, air and water.

It is suitable for anyone to take part in and units from other counties are welcome to join in.

To earn your badge you must complete:
  • One activity from each of the elements.
  • One of those activities must be done outside.
  • One of those activities must be done with another Girlguiding unit - ideally with another a section different to you.

Whilst we have provided ideas for you to complete the challenge, you can create your own activities if it fits with the theme!

We've also provided suggested links to the Girlguiding programme for each section and additional resources & websites at the end which may be useful.

Badges

There is, of course, a badge! These are available in the online shop and are priced at just 80p each.
