This exhibition at The Museum of London in The Docklands focuses on the guiding movement in London since The Girl Guides Association was formed in 1910.
With a colourful account of guiding history old stereotypes of cake baking and below the knee skirts are dispelled, as the exhibition highlights the relevance of guiding in today’s contemporary society.
With its origins in Edwardian London, it provides a timely opportunity to reflect on a movement which has been such an influence on generations of women. Marilyn was a London guider, so this is a must see exhibition for us.
‘A Hundred Years of Guiding in London’ runs from the 26th of June until the 31st of October 2010. Further details at: www.museumoflondon.org.uk
