County Executive Update – October 2026
Introducing a new "Key Cascade information note".
The Girlguiding Devon County Executive met on Wednesday 14th October to discuss county updates, upcoming events and plans for 2027. There was lots to share, including opportunities for our girls and members, important dates for the diary, future activities and ways we can continue to create exceptional experiences for girls and rewarding opportunities for our volunteers.
To help everyone keep up to date and make it easier to share information across Devon, we are introducing a new Key Cascade information document on the county website and found here /files/docs/Key_Cascade_Information_County_Executive_October_2026.docx
This will bring together the key dates, deadlines, opportunities and important information from County Executive meetings in one handy place, making it easier for commissioners, leaders and volunteers to share updates with their teams and units. Keep an eye on the website for the latest edition, and please help us spread the word so that everyone can make the most of the opportunities available across Girlguiding Devon.
