This week a special retreat gets underway. The first ever Camp CEO is run by Girl Guiding Scotland and will bring together 50 girl guides between 14-18 years old to learn future skills and be mentored by inspiring female Scottish CEOs.

This Camp is all about changing that by empowering and inspiring girls and young women.
