History
SAGGA was formed on 21 April 1957, and was originally nicknamed the "Peter Pan Club". The Association was an affiliated organisation of both Girlguiding UK and the Scout Association, but in 1988 it was de-affiliated by both Associations. However, it continues to work closely with both Associations.
SAGGA celebrated their 50th anniversary in 2007, with special celebrations at the association's Annual Gathering and AGM.

“Considered in its entirety, psychoanalysis won’t do. It’s an end product, moreover, like a dinosaur or a zeppelin; no better theory can ever be erected on its ruins, which will remain for ever one of the saddest and strangest of all landmarks in the history of twentieth-century thought.”
—Peter B. Medawar (1915–1987)
“Well, for us, in history where goodness is a rare pearl, he who was good almost takes precedence over he who was great.”
—Victor Hugo (1802–1885)
“The history of the world is the record of the weakness, frailty and death of public opinion.”
