Such a dignified farewell. I strongly feel closing BGO is a mistake and maybe one day the trustees will see sense or listen to their membership
Sadly we now have to say a final farewell to British Girlguiding Overseas. BGO was awesome! No more words.... š¢ #sailingwithBGO

This is amazing I have posted, as have so many in the last few months about what an important role BGO plays in childrenās lives overseas this just shows that itās been a huge part for nearly 100 years so sad in a few days @Girlguiding close BGO for good #sailingwithbgo
'We decided to make a quilt. It's now in the Imperial War Museum.' Olga Henderson was 13 in 1945 & survived starvation in a POW camp in Singapore. She tells us how she made a quilt for her #GirlGuiding leader whilst being held as an internee. It now hangs in the @I_W_M š§ā¬ļø

Today is The Feast of The Blessed Virgin Mary, giving thanks for her faith & trust in God. In 431AD, The Council of Ephesus confirmed her status as āTheotokosā meaning āMother of God.ā She's an inspiration to Christians globally, and the most depicted woman in human history.

Fantastic concert by @nsgso_nsgcb. As usual the standard was very high and the performance outstanding! Well done to all the guides and scouts and the #volunteers that make it happen @GirlguidingMids @girlguiding @scouts

For our biennual BGO Region Camp in the UK in 2017, we had a change of venue. Challenge17 was held at PGL. This was when we also marked the change in our name from British Guides in Foreign Countries to British Girlguiding Overseas. See the new flag!! #SailingWithBGO
