To Tracy Foster Chief Guide, Felicity Oswald Chief Executive and Denise Wilson OBE Chair of the board of trustees:

Compassion should always come before exclusion - especially when considering the happiness and wellbeing of little girls - trans or otherwise. You have succumbed to a hateful few and abandoned your values of inclusivity and care. We call on you to reverse your decision to ban trans girls from all Girlguiding groups and inspire hope in us all.

​Girlguides: do not exclude little trans-girls!
Girlguiding UK has this week made the decision to ban little girls between the ages of 4-16 who are trans, from joining. But no little child should be punished for being who they are. 

Girlguides, who support girls as young as four to build confidence and community via afterschool clubs, claim to value care and inclusion. But this decision is a harsh betrayal of those values they claim to live by. 

Let’s call on Girlguiding to overturn this cruel decision and refuse to punish children who’ve done nothing wrong. Sign and share this petition, and we’ll deliver every signature.
