AFOFSAG

The International Scout and Guide Fellowship has 54 full member countries and 5 associate members. Each of these countries is represented by a 'National Scout and Guide Fellowship'. Australia's National Fellowship is the Australian Fellowship of Former Scouts and Guides (AFOFSAG) and was accepted as a full member in 1961.

The Aims of the International Scout and Guide Fellowship are to encourage its members

• to personally keep alive the spirit of the Promise and Law as laid down by Baden-Powell, Founder of the Scouts and Guide Movements.
• to bring that spirit into the communities in which they live and work: and
• to actively support Scouting and Guiding in these communities, in their countries and worldwide.

AFOFSAG represents three constituent organisations:

Baden-Powell Guild of Australia.

Trefoil Guild of Australia

St Georges Guilds in Australia Inc.

The National Joint Council (NJC) is the administrative body and consists of 3 representatives from the Baden-Powell Guild and 3 representatives from the Trefoil Guild.

The NJC is rotated to a different States every 3 years.

Trefoil Guild is open to any adult female who has or is prepared to make the Guide Promise and endeavour to live by it. There are Trefoil Guilds in all Australian States.
