Can I organise an event?
Yes! Just get in touch with our Events Lead at events@guidersagainsttransexclusion.co.uk
Can I attend if I am under 18?
Yes, but all under 18s must be accompanied by a trusted adult. That may be a parent, carer or friend!
Do I have to be a member of Girlguiding?
No! We encourage anyone who supports our cause to attend, including politicians, trans orgs or individuals who care. Please note that we are creating a guiding-esque environment at our events and protests involve singing campfire songs along with chants and testimonies. Please refer to our Code of Conduct below for our expectations from attendees. We have a zero tolerance policy for violence or inappropriate behaviour/language.
Is the revolution actually risk assessed?
Absolutely. The Safeguarding and Events Leads make sure that every event is risk assessed and has adequate provisions in place to make events welcoming and safe for everyone. If you have any concerns, send us an email!
