Awards
Olave Baden-Powell Award
The Olave Baden-Powell Award (“OBP Award”) is the peak achievement award for Olaves. The Award and Program are suitably named after Lady Baden-Powell (1889-1977), the World Chief Guide. The OBP Award requires a strong commitment to self-development and service. See your state website for forms.
Duke of Edinburgh’s Award
Olaves (up to the age of 25 years) are able to complete the Gold Duke of Edinburgh's Award. This award can also be credited with many other Girl Guide awards including the Olave Baden-Powell Award.
Commonwealth Award
The Commonwealth Award is open to Guides (13 and older) and Olaves (to the age of 30) in all Commonwealth countries. This award strengthens the bonds between girls living in the Commonwealth by allowing them to learn about one another’s history and culture, as well as develop their knowledge of their own country. See your state website for forms.
There are a number of other awards available to be earned by this age group - see the Resource or consult your State Olave Program Manager (or equivalent).
