Jacqueline has been involved with the Girl Guides since she was only seven years old and is now Guider in charge.
She has given up her time to take groups of girls on trips both at home and abroad.
The group have made big impact on the local community by entertaining the elderly, attending Armistice services and even carol singing.
While the relay has stopped, we think it's time for everyone to try our Queen's Baton Relay quiz.
We've had a few queries about whether you can watch the live stream back on our website.
Unfortunately, this is not available. However, while the stream is being broadcast on this page you can scroll back to any point of the day to watch it again.
Very handy if you want a screen grab of a friend or family member holding the baton. But be quick! It will disappear when the live coverage ends.
