WOMEN IN SPORT

Women in Sport exists so that every woman and girl in the UK can experience the transformational lifelong rewards of sport. To achieve this we inform through our research into women and girls’ relationship with sport and physical activity, innovate through partnering with sport deliverers and inspire using our insight and expertise to bring about changes in policy, practice and attitudes that lead to greater opportunities for women and girls in sport.

 

Our Mission: Women and girls are missing out on the benefit of the lifelong benefits of sport. We want to change this, now for every woman and girl in the UK.

 

Our Vision: A society where women and men have equal opportunities.

 

How we do it: We are the only organization in the UK that researches sport purely from the perspective of women and girls. We use the insight gained to drive change through campaigns and partnerships.
