Did you know?

Girl Guides from across the British Empire raised over £46,000 in 1940 to
help the war effort. A third of this was used by the RAF to buy air ambulances.

Why not make life easy and bring your group to the RAF Museum London? This
great day out will assist with learning all about the science of flight and the
connections between the RAF and Girlguiding, with the opportunity for Brownies to
work towards their ‘Aviation’ badge.

At the Museum

We offer a workshop for Girl Guides which takes place on two Saturdays each year, once in June and once in December. There are three time slots to choose from on each day. This is for a minimum group size of 20. The hour long workshop includes:

A hands-on presentation about the links between Girl Guides and the RAF from 1919 to present, including stories of inspirational women
A chance to explore and handle objects from our collection
The opportunity to try on real RAF uniforms and take some great photos.
