The International Presidents' Committee (IPC) aim to show their appreciation for these volunteers tireless hours of selfless service through the 2026 Trailblazer Awards, open to members and leaders at all levels of the organisation.
Nominations are welcomed for three awards. For members, the Rising Star Award is an opportunity to recognise a GB member who embodies the spirit of Girls' Brigade. The Inspiring Leader Award is for a current young GB leader who has inspired others through Christian leadership within GB. Finally, the Long Service Award is for committed leaders, recognising the long standing commitment of a GB leader.
In addition, GB International is launching their 2026 International Competition, open to members and leaders aged 8-25. This year, the competition takes the form of a digital poster, looking forward to our upcoming four-year theme 'Step Out in Faith'. This is a great chance to get creative and represent your group at an international level!
