Last night we recieved some news regarding the future of Girls' Brigade Scotland which I want to share with you now.
Girls' Brigade Scotland (GBS) in its current format will cease from 31 May 2027. However, GBS companies will have the option to join with GB England & Wales in a new organisation to be called GB Great Britain from 1 June 2027.
For us at 20th Dundee Girls' Brigade this is sad news as we are strong and healthy company, as part of GBS and have been for 63 years. There are of course lots of mixed emotions and we need to process what this means for us.
Whatever the future holds, I want to make it clear, 20th Dundee will be back bigger and better than ever in August 2026 ready for our final session as part of GBS.
I want to assure parents, friends and family, 20th Dundee GB is in no way closing - We, and those before us have built an AMAZING company, full of strong and inspirational people who have gone on to achieve so many things, and this WILL continue in some format, to serve Menzieshill and the wider community.
We have an incredible group of girls, leaders and supporters, and we will be here for many years to come, things might just look at little differently in the future.
We will email all parents in due course, I just wanted everyone to hear it from me before it was released nationally.
If you have any questions or concerns, please get in touch.
Thanks for your continued support - we wouldn't/couldn't do what we do without you!! ❤️💙💜
Kind regards
Jenni
Leader in Charge
20th Dundee Girls" Brigade
