About Us
Girl Guides Western Australia is a member organisation of Girl Guides Australia, and of the World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts (WAGGGS). With a membership of over 10 million girls and women in 150 countries, WAGGGS is the largest all-female organisation in the world!
Guiding in Western Australia was established in 1915. Since then, we've grown into one of the largest youth organisation for girls and young women in Western Australia, with over 2000 youth members and over 500 volunteer Leaders and adult members. Girl Guides Western Australia is made up of 15 Regions throughout both metropolitan and rural areas. Regions usually include a number of multi-aged Units, with youth
members aged 5 to 17, Leaders (18+) and Junior
Leaders (14-17) in various roles.
Girl Guides Western Australia is an organisation that creates safe and friendly environments for children and young people where they:
- have fun and make friends
- can feel safe and are protected from harm
- can have a say in planning activities and other decisions affecting them
- are listened to
- are respected
- try new challenges
- have their best interests considered and upheld
We are an organisation that welcomes and actively seeks members from all racial, ethnic, religious and socio-economic groups. Girl Guides Western Australia is a not-for-profit organisation. Find out what Girl Guides do.

We are also a Registered Charity with the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission.
