GIRLGUIDING AT
HAREWOOD
Registered Charity No. 517753
GIRLGUIDING AT HAREWOODPrincess Mary, grandmother to the current Earl of Harewood, had a strong interest and involvement with the Girlguides from an early age. She became Norfolk’s County Commissioner in 1917, aged just 20 years old. After three years of devoted work, she was made president of the organisation, a role she enjoyed throughout her life. In 1937, Princess Mary enrolled her nieces Princess Elizabeth as a Guide and Princess Margaret as a Brownie, and the 1st Buckingham Palace Guide Company was formed.
Today we welcome groups from across the region to visit us and explore Harewood’s past and present connections with Girlguiding.
Harewood BadgeThis year, in partnership with Girlguiding Leeds, we are excited to launch a brand new Harewood Challenge badge which groups can complete during their visit to Harewood.
The Harewood Badge will be awarded to all visiting young members on completion of the challenges included within this pack. Harewood Badges are included within the price of entry, and can be collected from the Information Centre on the day of your visit.

AREWOOD HOUSE
WHAT IS HAREWOOD?Harewood is a place of activity and lifelong learning, created by generations of architects, artists, designers, collectors, gardeners, and the people who have lived and worked here. It is a place for inspiration. We aim to promote the understanding and enjoyment of Harewood as a place of historic and contemporary interest, and share this education and enjoyment with Girlguiding groups visiting us each day.
HouseWhen Edwin Lascelles started building Harewood House in 1759 he wanted nothing but the best for his new home. He employed the finest craftsmen of the time: York-born architect John Carr, fashionable interior designer Robert Adam, England’s greatest furniture maker Thomas Chippendale and visionary landscape gardener Lancelot ‘Capability’ Brown.
As you walk round the house, you can see Renaissance masterpieces, exquisite family portraits by Reynolds, Gainsborough, Lawrence and Richmond, as well as a fine collection of Sèvres china, among many other delights.
GardensThere are over 100 acres of gardens at Harewood. They are full of variety, with plants from all over the world, all set within a magnificent ‘Capability’ Brown landscape. Our award winning Head Gardener, Trevor Nicholson, oversees the stunning range of gardens, including the formal Terrace, the Lakeside Garden, the Himalayan Garden and the Walled Garden, all waiting for you to explore.
Bird GardenHarewood is home to many species of threatened and exotic birds. By raising awareness and funds for conservation, we’re helping to support the welfare of these birds in the future. We are also home to many native wild birds, and with birds feeders located round the lake, it is the perfect place to investigate the natural world around us.
Farm ExperienceYoung farmers can meet friendly alpacas, learn about our family of pygmy goats and get cosy with giant rabbits at the brand new Farm Experience. With a variety of four legged friends to discover, the Harewood Farm Experience is a fantastic opportunity to investigate the science of living things.
USEFUL INFORMATIONHow can I book a visit?To book a visit to Harewood House, or have a chat about anything within this pack, please call our Education Manager, Zoë White, on 0113 218 1043 or email [email protected]. All visit must be booked in advance.
When can I book?Our open season runs from March to October, at which time we are open every day for Girlguiding visits. The grounds are open 10am to 6pm each day.
PricesWe o�er a special discounted rate for all Girlguiding groups: – £6.00 per young member (includes a Harewood challenge badge for each young member) – 1 adult free of charge per 10 girls (under 16) – £6.50 per additional adult – Essential carers free of charge
How to find usHarewood is centrally placed at the junction of the A61/A659 on the Leeds/Harrogate road. Sat Nav users are recommended to use the postcode LS17 9LQ as this will bring you straight to the main Archway entrance to Harewood o� the A61.
TOP TIPSDon’t miss the penguin feed every day at 11am. Head out to the Penguin Pool and watch the popular characters enjoy a spot of brunch.
Did you know you can jump the queues on busy days and pre-order ice lollies or goody bags?
HEALTH AND SAFETYHere are our Health and Safety Guidelines, which you might find useful when completing your risk assessments:
It is the responsibility of a group representative to carry out specific risk assessments for their organised visit.
To help visiting establishments complete a risk assessment we o�er two free preliminary visits for leaders organising a visit.
The adult/child ratios will be adhered to at all times in the House and Gardens.
Leaders accompanying the visiting group are responsible for supervising those in their care, at all times whilst on site.
An emergency contact telephone number for a group leader on site will be provided to Harewood House Trust, in case of an emergency.
High standards of behaviour are expected of children. Harewood House sta� will intervene if the behaviour of the group is disruptive, unruly, likely to cause o�ence, or risk the safety of other visitors.
All notices and barriers must be respected.
A trained first aider is on duty at all times. If assistance is required during your visit then please don’t hesitate to contact a member of sta� who will then in turn contact the Duty Manager.
Below are some of the controls we have in place to ensure safety of over 200,000 customers who visit Harewood annually.
House
A Health and Safety audit is carried out annually prior to the House opening.
The visitor route is inspected daily and remedial action is taken immediately if a problem occurs.
The visitor route is supervised whilst the House is open and all sta� are thoroughly trained in all emergency procedures.
Gardens
We advise leaders to make children aware of slipping and tripping hazards associated with the natural environment. We recommend the use of appropriate footwear and suitable outdoor clothing for the inclement British weather.
The lakeside path is inspected daily and remedial action is taken immediately if a problem occurs.
Bird Garden
We advise leaders to inform children not to touch the birds or pick up feathers for hygiene and safety reasons.
We advise leaders to take the necessary cautions regarding allergies as many of the birds feed on nuts.
The Bird Garden is on a slope so we advise the use of suitable footwear.
Farm Experience
Leaders must inform young members not to touch any of the animals unless instructed to do so by a member of Harewood sta�. All animal handling should take place under the supervision of Harewood sta�.
Leaders must ensure all young members have washed their hands thoroughly with warm water and soap when entering and exiting the Farm.
We advise group leaders to take the necessary cautions regarding allergies when children are handling the farm feed. A farm feed ingredient list is available upon request.
We advise leaders that all visitors are strictly prohibited to eat or drink in the Farm area.
Adventure Playground
All equipment has been installed by the manufacturers and has an annual inspection by their safety team.
All equipment is inspected daily and maintained in accordance with manufacturer’s specifications.

PORTRAITS & CHARACTERS
Look around the State Floor at all the di�erent types of portraits that can be found in Harewood House. It is now time to create your own!
Think about the reason people had their portrait painted: they wanted to make a statement about themselves, and show something about their personality, their hobbies or their achievements.
1. List three things that you want to show about yourself within your portrait (e.g. that you are sporty or artistic):
i) …………………………………………………………………………….
ii) …………………………………………………………………………….
iii) …………………………………………………………………………….
2. Now think of how you can symbolise these three things using di�erent objects in your portrait (e.g. a paintbrush or a football):
i) …………………………………………………………………………….
ii) …………………………………………………………………………….
iii) …………………………………………………………………………….
3. Think about what you would put in the background of your painting? What would this say about you? Lady Louisa, 3rd
Countess of Harewood had the Terrace that she added to the the house included in the background of her portrait.
4. Now you are ready to create your portrait! On the back of this worksheet, sketch out your portrait within the frame. You can use a mirror to draw yourself, or find a partner and draw each other. Remember to include the objects and background you have thought of so your portrait tells everyone about who you are.

ACTIVITIES IN THE BIRD GARDEN:
RED KITES
In the 1800s, red kites were hunted close to extinction in England and Scotland. As part of a UK conservation initiative in 1999, kites were released on the Harewood Estate. Now there are over 300 red kites across Harewood and Yorkshire. Learn more about the red kite release project at Harewood.
