Maldon Division

Our Division covers a wide geographical area incorporating rural towns and villages. To help with the administration of the Division, it is divided into three Districts:

• Crouch & Lawlands covering Althorne, Bradwell, Burnham on Crouch, Mayland, Southminster and St Lawrence
• Maldon & Purleigh covering Cold Norton and Maldon
• Tiptree covering Heybridge, Tiptree and Tollesbury

There are currently Rainbow Units for girls ages 5-7 years, Brownie Units for 7-10 years old, Guide Units for 10-14 years old, Senior Section Units for girls aged 14+ and a Trefoil Guild for adults throughout the Division where over 600 members enjoy the Guiding experience. For more information about your area please click on the appropriate link above.

Each Unit devises its own programme of activities which could include craft work, exploring world issues, helping others, learning new practical skills or challenging oneself by perhaps abseiling or canoeing, all underpinned by the idea that the members help choose what is done and the development of their life skills.

Trefoil Guild - Maldon is proud to have a Guild which is open to any adult who has made a promise. They meet once a month in the evening and enjoy learning new skills, receiving speakers and arranging trips and visits in the local area. The Guild members can also provide support to some of the division units or events if needed and of course have lots of fun!

Division Activities - Last year we celebrated 100 years of Guiding and on a sunny day in July 2010 walkers from all sections set off to walk 10 miles as part of a County Challenge. Between all the members we completed just over 1000 miles starting at Maldon prom, on to Beeleigh & Heybridge Basin using tow paths & footpaths along the rivers.
