Patience, Lady Baden-Powell, granddaughter-in-law of the Founder and wife of the present Lord Baden-Powell, died in the early hours of 18 December aged 74. Patience Baden-Powell undertook a lifetime of service to Girl Guiding, Scouting and many other caring organisations both within the United Kingdom and around the world.

I will do my best to be
Honest and fair,
Friendly and helpful,
Considerate and caring,
Courageous and strong, and
Responsible for what I say and do,
And to
respect myself and others,
respect authority,
use resources wisely,
make the world a better place, and
be a sister to every Girl Scout]
