Trefoil Guild Thanks and Recognition badge

We have 2 ways of thanking members and recognising their achievements. 

Our Thanks and Recognition badge is a tangible way of saying thank you to a member or non-member of the Trefoil Guild. It is an ideal way to recognise, for example, long service, holding a post within a Trefoil Guild, a job ‘well done’ or taking on extra responsibility. The choice is yours to make.

There are no criteria for this badge which can be purchased via the Girlguiding shop if you are a county badge secretary or ask your county chair.

Trefoil Guild Silver Brooch

The Trefoil Silver Brooch is the highest award in Trefoil and is a very special way of showing gratitude and recognition to a Trefoil member over and above that which would normally be expected. The brooch can be given to any member of Trefoil Guild or a non-member who fulfils the criteria.
 
The Silver Brooch should only be given for:

  • Commitment over and above the call of duty specific to Trefoil
  • Outstanding skills and service above and beyond what might be expected 
  • A display of great courage or fortitude
  • This award is not given for long service.
