Girlguiding is the leading charity for girls and young women in the UK. Thanks to the dedication and
support of 100,000 amazing volunteers, we are active in every part of the UK, giving girls and young
women a space where they can be themselves, have fun, build brilliant friendships, gain valuable life
skills and make a positive difference to their lives and their communities.
Our incredible volunteers contribute more than ten million hours to guiding every year. Some give
us a couple of hours here and there – helping out with driving for trips and holidays, fundraising and
events planning, or even doing the annual accounts for local groups. Others give their time as Leaders
or Assistant Leaders for units, providing girls and young women with a space where they can be
themselves. Whatever your skills and interests, and no matter how much time you have to spare, one
of our volunteering roles is bound to suit you.
‘As well as giving the girls amazing opportunities, I feel I’ve also
personally benefited from volunteering. It’s really rewarding for me
and I feel I’ve achieved something great.’
Lisa, Girlguiding volunteer

ASSISTANT COMMISSIONER
Level: County/Division/District
Who can do this role?
Assistant Commissioners are women over 18 years old. They should already be, or be willing to become,
a member of Girlguiding.
Do I need a qualification?
You don’t need a specific qualification to become an Assistant Commissioner, but training will be
available to you as part of this role.
What is the purpose of this role?
An Assistant Commissioner supports a level-specific Commissioner with general tasks or specific areas
of work relating to the Commissioner role. The Commissioner and one or more Assistant Commissioners
work together as a team, sharing tasks and making the most of their collective skills.
Becoming an Assistant Commissioner is a fantastic opportunity to influence guiding in your area.
You can meet and work with different people and support the Commissioner to lead real change that
improves the opportunities for girls and young women to experience guiding.
An Assistant Commissioner is invited to undertake the role by the local County, District or Division
Commissioner; your term will not extend beyond the term of the relevant Commissioner.

The responsibilities listed below will be shared among the County, Division or District Team. As an
Assistant Commissioner you will be working with others in your team, primarily with the Commissioner,
to make the most of the skills and time you are able to give. As the Commissioner may require an
Assistant to work with her on a particular area, the exact responsibilities of the role should be
confirmed with your local Commissioner.
