Girl Guides in Scotland are part of GirlGuiding UK.

Once the organization was established in the United Kingdom in 1910, it grew in Scotland and other places simply by women organizing new troops. Even Juliette Gordon Low, founder of Girl Scouts in the USA, first organized a couple of Girl Guide troops in Scotland.

Is Scotland where Girl Scouts came from?

Girl Guides (and Girl Scouts) were originally started in the United Kingdom. Girls saw what Lord Baden-Powell was doing with the Boy Scouts and wanted to be Boy Scouts, too. Lord Baden-Powell thought that girls should have their own organization, so he and his sister, Agnes Baden-Powell, started an organization for girls which was founded in 1910, and called it Girl Guides. Juliette Gordon Lowe met Lord Baden-Powell and became interested in Girl Guides, so she started troops near her home in Scotland and also helped start troops in London.
