Looking for a fun, low-prep way to kick off a new term or bring your group together? Game On! is a fast-paced quiz night designed to get everyone laughing, thinking, and working as a team from the very start. Featuring a variety of creative rounds from emoji film titles and quick-fire music clips to Girlguiding badge challenges, this session keeps energy high and everyone involved.

Keeping the Adventure Alive

At Hummingbird HQ, the goal is to keep resources free, accessible and available to leaders nationwide after a challenging period for my own unit, when rising costs and uncertainty around meeting spaces made it clear how fragile access to guiding activities can be. That experience shaped a commitment to sharing resources openly so that more leaders can be supported without added cost or barriers. Every donation, big or small, helps keep Hummingbird HQ running and enables the creation and sharing of new, free resources with leaders everywhere.
