Over the last century, the Girl Guides has become part of the national life of Britain. Today, the World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts enjoys a membership of millions throughout the world helping girls to get the best possible start in life. In 2010 the Girl Guide movement reaches its centenary milestone, a remarkable achievement now celebrated with a commemorative 50p coin.

The charming 50p coin marking the centenary of the Girl Guide movement features a repeating pattern of the Girlguiding identity. The 3 leaves of the trefoil represent the threefold Promise of the Guides - duty to God or religion, duty to country, keeping the Guide Law - while the stalk signifies the love of mankind and the star, friendship.
