I promise that I will do my best to love my God, serve the Queen and my country,*
to help other people
and to keep the Guide Law

 

This is the promise made by every Guide, from whatever section, when she makes or renews her promise. Brownies say “Brownie Guide Law” and Rainbows do not make a formal Promise as they are considered too young to understand what making a promise means, but they say “I will do my best to love my God and to be kind and helpful.” Rangers make the same Promise as other Guides, but also make an undertaking to be of service to the community.

*Guides who live in the UK but do not consider it to be their native country may alter the phrase "my country" to "the country in which I live."

 


 

When a Guide, whether a Brownie, Guide, Ranger, Young Leader or adult Leader, makes her promise she undertakes to do her best to keep the Guide Law:

  • A Guide is honest, reliable and can be trusted.
  • A Guide is helpful and uses her time and abilities wisely.
  • A Guide faces challenge and learns from her experiences.
  • A Guide is a good friend and a sister to all Guides.
  • A Guide is polite and considerate.
  • A Guide respects all living things and takes care of the world around her.
