Bloxwich Division

The Girlguiding division of Bloxwich covers the geographical areas of Bloxwich, Great Wyrley, Short Heath and Wyrley Bank.

Bloxwich itself is a small town in the Metropolitan Borough of Walsall, situated in the north of the borough and forming part of the Staffordshire/West Midlands border. In the 18th Century it grew rapidly due to the coal mining, iron smelting and various manufacturing industries. Its most famous products of manufacture were awl blades, needles, nails and spurs. In the 1900s a monument was created to commemorate the workers involved in these industries, The Anvil Stones, which can be found in Bloxwich Park. In the Promenade Gardens stands a Memorial Clock to Pat Collins, the flamboyant showman.

As of 7th April 2018 Bloxwich Division had:

101 Volunteers | 310 Girls | 31 Units

It is split into four districts:

Bloxwich Central | Great Wyrley | Short Heath | Wyrley Bank
