What the charity does
We are an innovative organisation working to tackle inequity in sport. We communicate latest information on 'female health in sport' to local athletes, clubs, coaches, schools and academics. We empower girls and women to achieve their sporting potential by working with, not against, their physiology and to make informed decisions to improve their long-term health, performance and avoid injury.
