Leader of the 1st Broadwindsor Rainbows, 1st Broadwindsor Guides & 1st West Dorset Rangers, Emma House also holds the positions of County Growth and Retention Coordinator and West Dorset Outside Activities Advisor. An extraordinary accomplishment by itself.
Emma received a Girlguiding Hero award on the evening of Rememberance Day. It reads:
You are a Hero because…
you have gone above and beyond to promote Girl Guiding.your numerous posts on the Dorset Leaders Facebook group lifted the spirits of members during the pandemic. You rose to the challenge & took on the role of County Growth and Retention Coordinator. Whilst still continuing to post inspiring ideas on Facebook reminding us how to promote guiding locally + instigated a regular spotlight on a unit post. You have continued to run local units in your division during lockdown, arranged girl award presentations, promoted stories in the local press + led the way for the County to take part in the Bournemouth Pride Parade.
The Girlguiding Hero award is relatively new and Emma was unaware she had even been nominated or who nominated her. All those nominated are put to a County Awards Council, discussed and decided upon who will get the award.
Well done Emma!
