A third Fearless Girls Club has launched in Surrey’s Knaphill

DATE

February 26, 2026

Helping young girls gain self-belief and resilience that lasts into adulthood, a third Fearless Girls Club has opened in Knaphill.

More young girls will “have smiles on their faces” with the addition of another Fearless Girls Club, thanks to two local mums.

Adding to the provision in Chobham and Sunninghill run by Elle Wilks and Kate Cooper, girls aged 8-12 are given the tools to be “unapologetically themselves”.

Through a unique curriculum of Club Quests – fun, research-based activities that help girls embrace their boldness and learn to know and love who they are – they become ‘fearless’.

Quest areas include Knowing Myself, Leadership, Being Bold, Resilience, Speaking Up, Critical Thinking, Mind & Body, Friendships and Digital World.

Sessions are supported by older girls from local secondary schools called Quest Leaders, who volunteer their time to role model fearlessness and leadership to club members.

Since launching the first of the not-for-profit clubs in January 2025, demand has soared, with waiting lists and grateful parents praising the ethos and the effect it has had on their daughters.

Elle said: “Fearless Girls Club gives them space to explore who they are, to ask questions, take up space and learn to feel proud of themselves.

“We’re helping them build the kind of self-belief and resilience that lasts into adulthood, so when life gets tough, they know how to handle it. Club is a place where they can learn to be and love themselves, and know they’re not alone.”

The club meets at Knaphill Methodist Church Hall on Tuesday, from 5.30pm to 7pm.
