Join us for an unmissable adventure this Wander the World: Edinburgh Edition What is Wander the World: Edinburgh Edition? We’re holding an action-packed adventure through the streets of Scotland’s capital city to celebrate World Thinking Day 2019. World Thinking Day is a global celebration of the 10 million Girl Guides and Girl Scouts around the world – so what better way to mark the occasion than by joining together with girls and volunteers from all over Scotland? Wander the World: Edinburgh edition will see Girlguiding members explore the capital, completing challenges inspired by the five WAGGGS World Centres – Pax Lodge (London), Our Chalet (Switzerland), Our Cabana (Mexico), Sangam (India) and Kusafiri (Africa). We've also weaved the brand new programme themes – Know Myself, Express Myself, Take Action, Be Well, Skills for my Future and Have Adventures – into the day. Who is it for? This event is open to all Girlguiding members from all sections. When is it? Wander the World: Edinburgh Edition takes place on Saturday 23 February, 2019.
