That this House congratulates Girlguiding UK on its centenary; commends the work of Girlguiding UK which, for 100 years, has enabled girls and young women to fulfil their potential; celebrates the invaluable work of the organisation's 80,000 adult volunteer leaders and 20,000 supporters, who dedicate their free time to ensuring that 80,000 Rainbows, 225,000 Brownies, 125,000 Guides and 20,000 Senior Section members have access to a vibrant girl-led programme including adventurous activities to build skills, confidence and self-esteem in a supportive all-female environment; notes the challenge the organisation faces in recruiting more volunteers to allow the 48,000 girls on waiting lists to join, and fully supports the organisation in its efforts to ensure all girls who wish to join have the opportunity to do so; pays tribute to all who have been Guides and leaders over the past 100 years; and wishes Girlguiding UK a successful centenary year and further success in the years ahead.
