Congratulations to Sue Day MBE on this exciting appointment🎉 We're looking forward to seeing women's football grow and develop under Sue's influence over the coming years. @SueDay13

Give men the advice, not just women.
"I wouldn't give women any advice." Too often, women are told to stay safe while exercising by not wearing headphones, carrying a phone and running before it gets dark. How about we equip men to be active allies in women's safety instead? 🎙️Full ep: womeninsport.org/sky-sports-rea…

It’s fantastic to hear our research being used in Parliament to emphasise the importance of giving girls a positive first experience of physical activity and supporting them to stay in sport through puberty. Check out the clip from @ThangamMP⤵️
Getting more girls into sport and physcial activity is a priority for me. 860,000 are missing out on the benefits and the joy. I was one of those girls. I didnt think it was for me. Now, as someone who benefits from running most mornings, I don't want anyone else to miss out.
''Only 29% of girls dream of becoming a top sportsperson, compared to 52% of boys'' Eye-opening research from @Womeninsport_uk - and actionable solutions.
