This special state event builds on the Youth Ambassadors for Seniors (YAS) program, where our older Girl Guide Units have been helping to break down stereotypes, challenge ageism and create stronger connections between young people and older generations.

Together, we’ll create a brave space to learn, reflect and celebrate. Expect a sea of purple, flowers and thoughtful activities that honour the seniors in our community. It’s a chance to show respect, share stories and stand up for kindness and inclusion across all ages.
