Girls' Brigade leaders

As from 1 December 2021, it was agreed that young women who are members of GB Scotland and 16+, who have expressed a desire to undertake GB Scotland's Leadership Training programme, should undertake the full recruitment process, including becoming members of the PVG Scheme. (Previously, these young women didn't join the PVG Scheme until just before their 18th birthday.)

Please note that this is only for those enrolling on the Leadership Training programme and all other 16 and 17-year-old members will remain as a Brigadier.

The policy remains the same for potential Leaders who are aged 18 and over in that they must undertake normal recruitment processes and become members of the PVG Scheme prior to working in any Girls' Brigade company.
