Girls Brigade

Girls’ Brigade is a fun and exciting youth organisation that provides a full range of enjoyable activities that caters for all girls aged 3 - 18 years. It is a great place to meet life-long friends and encourage girls to be more confident and free to be themselves.

Like all GB companies, Carrickfergus Methodist GB operates a varied programme through the GB Session that suits all girls. This helps them to work towards badges in four key areas - spiritual, physical, educational and service. 

Weekly activities include Bible teaching, games, craft, drama, singing and helping others.  Girls can also take part in camps, DofE Award and young leadership training. Awards can be achieved for regular attendance at company nights.

Our GB company meets on a weekly basis outside school hours, on Thursday evenings between 6.15 – 9pm, from September to April/May each year.  Each company has trained friendly female volunteers that are there to support and encourage your daughter whilst at GB.
 

In Girls' Brigade you will also:

• Learn to seek, serve and follow Christ;

• Grow your faith, and find answers;

• Build self-esteem;

• Discover new gifts and skills;

• Get creative;

• Be part of a team;

• Be safe, valued and have fun; and

• Be challenged and achieve!

You can join GB at any time but the best time is always at the start of a new session in September. Feel free to make contact with the Company Captain, Deborah Green or just call in on a Thursday evening and we will be happy to tell you all about our GB company and the programme we have planned for this coming GB session.
