Welcome to the GOLD Ghana 2016 blog!
We are a group of six women about to embark on the journey of a lifetime. Our amazing team is made up of Laura, Sarah H, Sarah D, Terri, Alice and Mhairi. But more on us later...
So what exactly is a GOLD project?
Guiding Overseas Linked with Development (GOLD) are projects that are run by Girlguiding UK for women ages between 18 and 30. GOLD has been running since 1991 and has visited over 30 countries across the world. GOLD teams are made up of 6 leaders who aim to complete projects that are sustainable and run between three and five years.
Our project will be primarily concentrating on training Leaders and developing a sustainable training programme for use within Ghana.
Fun Fact: GOLD Ghana 2016 also has the added bonus of being the only team that has a member from all countries in the UK. Laura is from Northern Ireland, Alice from Wales, Mhairi from Scotland and Sarah H, Sarah D and Terri are from England!
