Nearly 4000 Guides from Australia, Bermuda, Denmark, Great Britain, France, Hong Kong, India, Ireland, Kenya, Malta, The Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Suomi-Finland, and Switzerland attended. It was then stored away for seven years and appeared for the second time, with the tricolour, over the Eleventh World Conference at Evian, France.

Hampton Court, her home, 1960

Olave had been in hospital in Australia in 1957. She invited the girl who had nursed her to visit her at Hampton Court. Olave set up an  indoor 'camp' for her and her friends so they could come and go at there ease. This started a long line of guests staying in the 'camp'.

Olave received many messages for Thinking Day, and sent well over 2000 herself
