BGO has provided me as a trailing spouse (having given up my career in order to support my husband’s career in moving our family overseas) with stability and friendship. 
In a strange and foreign country one of the first friendly faces I met was the District Commissioner. I was made welcome and able to carry on with something that was valuable to me, my Girlguiding work. 
I love interacting from girls all around the world and instilling the values of friendship, confidence, compassion and understanding in them. My own daughter has benefited hugely from the support of BGO and it has been lovely to see her and my friendships develop through BGO.
