The Queen’s Award is the highest award attainable in Girls’ Brigade and the prestigious ceremony was held in Fisherwick Presbyterian Church, Belfast, where women who successfully attained the award in 2020, 2021 and 2022 attended along with their family, friends and Girls’ Brigade leaders. The guest speaker was Rev Daniel Rankin, GBNI Chaplain, encouraged, blessed and challenged the girls to think about not only their achievements to date but also God’s plans for them for the future.

The Queen’s Award syllabus is a major undertaking for young women which requires them to undertake six elements over a two year period including: community service; GB company service; submission of an in depth project assignment to a high standard; and pass a two hour written study paper and final interview.
