Liz Burnley


Elizabeth Burnley CBE (14 March 1959), née Elizabeth Harrison, was the Chief Guide of Girlguiding UK between 2006 and 2011.

At the University of Nottingham, she completed a BSc in Psychology, then an MSc in Occupational Psychology.

Burnley first got involved with Guiding as a Brownie and she was also a Guide. She has previously held the post of International Commissioner within Girlguiding UK.

In a webchat in September 2006, she said her most memorable experience as a Guide was "an "incident hike" - our team got lost on a moor, capsized our raft and missed the casualty we were meant to rescue - but amazing fun!"

Burnley was appointed Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE) in the 2010 Birthday Honours.

Professionally, she has worked in Human Resources for British Rail Engineering Limited and Boots UK. She now is a programme director for Common Purpose UK since 2007. Now widowed, Burnley was formerly married (Roger Burnley in 2000).
