The virtual event, taking place on Thursday 30 July, will inform key stakeholders on the progress made and the challenges remaining in achieving cross-gender equality in the UK sports sector and identify opportunities for the UK to significantly contribute to global progress in this area.
Among the impressive line-up of speakers are 11-time Paralympic gold medallist, Baroness Tanni Grey-Thompson, and member of the International Olympic Committee, Anita DeFrantz.
We are also delighted to confirm that the Minister for Sport, Nigel Huddleston MP, will be contributing to the event.
The conference is free to attend and we extend our invite to those both within and outside the sector who endeavour for equality of women and girls.
The number of attendees is limited so we recommend signing up as soon as possible to avoid disappointment.
Here is an end-of-week wrap on some key workstreams we’re undertaking for you, our members, that we want to bring to your attention. It covers a number of important pieces of information for consideration or action.
