Around 100 Rainbows, Brownies, Guides and their leaders from Abbey district came together for a festival of activities last Saturday (September 22).

This was the first time since before Covid that the girls had met for an event.

Organisers said it was a "fantastic day of fun in the sunshine".

The girls took part in a variety of activities including dancing, making s'mores on a campfire, circus skills, face painting, crafts, sports, tie dying, making mock tails and a visit from the ice cream van.

They were all given a celebratory necker and fun fest badge.

Helen Lloyd, leader of 12th Kenilworth Brownies said: 'We decided as a district we wanted to give the girls an event to remember.

"We spent months planning it and it was great to see all the girls enjoying themselves."
