In the spring last year, an exciting proposal began to take shape in the form of a Girlguiding Norfolk heritage project. Very quickly, the idea developed, and the ‘Historical Jigsaw' was born; a project that will enable 13-19 years olds to slot together the pieces of Norfolk's guiding jigsaw. A bid was submitted to the Young Roots Heritage Lottery Fund for financial support and, near the end of NorJam 2006, the news came through that we had successfully been awarded a grant of £25,000. Help us spend the money!

A key part of the project will be collecting oral histories from people with memories of guiding, particularly those with memories connected to the topics outlined above. Interested? Have we whetted your appetite? If we have, then read on to find out how you could get involved! Find the Old People's Home challenge on the Oral History section!

This website will mean that the world will be able to contribute to our search for information and evidence from the past. Help us find out, who's who, who's where, when it was and what's what! It will become a growing source of evidence that we hope will interest many people, especially as the Centenary of Girlguiding gets closer. In addition, navigate the website to find out the most up-to-date information about events being organised as part of the project... download the necessary forms and keep in touch.
