Shops & Uniform

Shops & Uniform

Girls can choose from our specially designed guiding wear for meetings and activities.

Our uniform gives everyone in guiding a sense of belonging and pride in being part of our charity. We don’t have one set uniform – instead we take a flexible approach.

Our uniform range includes plenty of bright, practical choices for girls to wear at meetings and activities. Guiding wear is designed to be mix and match, with a range for each age group.

Shops

Durham North County presently has 3 Guide shops shown below, where uniform, books etc can be purchased (cash only, except for South Shields which can take card payments).

If the item or size is not available, the shops are able to order the item in for you. The local shops offer a great way of being able to try on for size.

Alternatively, you can order items on-line from the main Girlguiding Shop at www.girlguidingshop.co.uk

Online Shop

Please click on the logo below to take you to the national Girlguiding Online Shop.

Girls take what they do in guiding with them as they grow up. Everything from working in a team, to taking the lead, to speaking out on issues they care about. It helps them develop the skills and confidence to become the young women they want to be. ’
