Dr Anita White, one of the four co-founders of Women in Sport speaks to Kait Borsay on Times Radio about her trailblazing career in sport.
From leading England Hockey to World Cup victory in 1975 as the women’s team captain (pictured leading the team out here), to co-founding our charity almost 40 years ago, she has had a huge impact both elite and grassroots women’s sport.
