Members of Girlguiding North West England are celebrating the appointment of a new Region President, who will support the North West charity and its 67,000 members over the next three years.
As one of the most prominent and respected women in sport, Denise Barrett-Baxendale MBE, Everton Football Club Deputy CEO, was chosen to take on the role, after her name was put forward by a panel of girls and young women aged between 14–25 as an inspirational role model.
Denise will work closely and support the lead volunteers of the organisation, to support girls and young women across the North West.
