Beatrice Overend
Hello,
I’m Bee and I’m a first year PhD student at the University of Liverpool studying plant genetics. Since the age of 5 I’ve been a girl guide and am now a Rainbow leader! I only joined SSAGO in my third year of undergrad but have loved being involved for the last few years! In March I was one of the co-chairs for CenetenaRally - a roll which definitely taught me a lot (mostly just how to function with no sleep).
In my time not spent on SSAGO I’m a keen musician playing in 6 university bands a week and having been the Symphony Orchestra manager and flute choir conductor during my time at Liverpool. When I’m not playing music I’m on the water in some form of boat - mostly sailing boats but have recently taken up kayaking as well.
Publicity

Report
- This term I've been doing quite a bit of behind the scenes work. SSAGO goes to spoons badges have been sorted and are now being handed out. New uniform badges have been ordered and added to the shop. We have sorted a new merchandise order and tested them with our Explorer group merchandise. This means SSAGO clothing can be available very soon.
- Publicity wise I have attended a local Girlguiding event talking about what's next after Rangers and how SSAGO plays a role in over 18 guiding. I've been advertising the agm and helping advertise for new exec.
