Are you aged 14-25** and looking for a new challenge? Do you want to deliver fun & interactive sessions for Brownies, Guides & Rangers on issues important to them?
Join us at our next peer education residential training weekend from early evening on Friday 9 – mid afternoon on Sunday 11 February at Wynches Activity Centre in Burley in Wharfedale. You’ll be trained with skills in order to facilitate sessions and to deliver the peer education topic ‘Breaking Free’. By the end of the weekend you’ll be a Peer Educator with the skills and confidence to run sessions for units in your area!
By registering for the weekend you agree to complete both days of training. You will also need to complete a short online training before the event – full details will be circulated to all registered participants.
Once you have completed this weekend training you can increase your repertoire on other topics if you wish.
**Please note that a young member must hold the role of a Ranger or Young Leader to hold a Peer Educator role. 14+ year olds who still hold a Guide role will not be able to practice as a Peer Educator or have it added to their GO record until such time as they are a Ranger or Young Leader.
Already a trained Peer Educator? We will be offering a very limited number of places on the Sunday only for those who have previously completed the basic Peer Education training but who wish to complete the training on the ‘Breaking Free’ topic. To register for just the Sunday please visit this page.

We may consider opening to out of region participants depending on bookings – if you are interested in being considered for this please email info@girlguidingnortheast.org.uk and we will put you on an expressions of interest list.
