The aim of Guiding is to help girls and young women to develop emotionally, mentally, physically and spiritually so they can make a positive contribution to their community and wider world.  

Membership is open to any girl or woman provided she is able to understand and is willing to make the Promise. The Guide Association respects the requirements of different faiths.  Guiding gives girls the opportunity to follow any number of interests and at the same time learn self-reliance and self-respect. 

There are over ten million members in over 120 countries.  LCVYS serves four guide counties
