Church Lads’ & Church Girls’ Brigade
Fun, Faith & Friendship
22-25 May 2026 – The 125th anniversary of the Church Girls Brigade.
In 1901 the Church Red Cross Brigade was opened by Rev Thomas and Florence Milner in Tottenham. It then had a name change in 1910, to the Church Nursing and Ambulance Brigade for Women and Girls and then in 1923 to the Church Girls’ Brigade. Join with us to celebrate our long and prestigious past and the future ahead of us.
What do the clergy think?
“The Church Lads’ and Church Girls’ Brigade (CLCGB) has provided structured and enjoyable ways to help young people develop in their faith and in themselves. It goes without saying, that as well as being educational the CLCGB provides a great deal of fun for its members and Officers. I strongly commend it to you”
Archbishop John McDowell, Primate of all Ireland.
