Our Governance

Women in Sport believes sport transforms lives

It can give girls and women resilience, courage, self-belief and a sense of belonging.

so our vision is that:

No-one is excluded from the joy, fulfilment and lifelong benefits of sport.

Our Board of Trustees, who are responsible for ensuring that the charity fulfils its objectives, also support us to work towards this vision.

Diversity and Inclusion

We want all sport and exercise to reflect and recognise that women and girls have distinct physicality and needs. So we will champion and promote the diversity of women and girls and include their lived experiences at the forefront of our work, whether insights and research or campaigns and influencing to inspire change. Only then can we create a more equal society where everyone can enjoy the joy, fulfilment and lifelong benefits of sport and exercise.
