Guide Challenge Badge - Unit Guidelines

I visited the annual County Leadership Qualification Training weekend yesterday to do the Guide section training. It was lovely to see so many new young leaders, and the enthusiasm was infectious but what was alarming was the percentage in our small Guide group who didn't know about unit guidelines! So I thought I had better check to make sure we are correct (we re-do the guidelines at the start of each September) and all the guides sign them. Here is the extract from the Guide Challenge badge online:

 Over a 12-month period, be a reliable member of your Patrol.
  • Talk to your Patrol about what it's like to belong to that team and make one suggestion for improvement.
  • Sign and keep the unit's Guidelines.
  • If you have sometimes found the Guidelines difficult to keep, discuss this with your Patrol and make suggestions for changes.
