The A-Z International Challenge 2026

We're challenging groups from across the region to take part in an international trip in 2026 and visit another country - or city or town in another country - for every letter of the alphabet. How many can London and South East England members reach?

Your trip could be an overnight in Antwerp, a weekend in Berlin, a mid-week break in Croatia, a week in Denmark, or a 2-week journey across Europe - the choice is yours! Plan a trip to suit the time you are able to commit and that your young people will enjoy. Get started by talking to other local leaders, speaking to your local commissioner and reaching out to your county international advisor.

When your permission to plan is received through GO, we'll add your group name and destination to our A-Z display below so we can see where people are going โ€“ and spot which letters still need visitors.

Share the word about our A-Z challenge with your Girlguiding community, by downloading our flyer.

We canโ€™t wait to see where the region will reach in 2026!
