This Girl Can

In Gloucestershire, the Active People Survey indicates that 41.3% of the adult male (16+) population participate in sport at least once a week compared to only 30.2% of females

The running shoes that never visit the road. That swimming costume that never sees the water. Those support bras that never get to support you. Are you guilty? We all know It's far too easy to put off exercise for many reasons.

Well, not anymore

You may have noticed the TV ads, billboards, twitter hashtags, all pointing towards the 'This Girl Can' campaign which launched this week. 'This Girl Can' aims to get more women and girls active and playing sport by liberating them from the fear of judgement when exercising.

In Gloucestershire, the Active People Survey has highlighted the difference in participation levels between males and females. The latest results available indicate that 41.3% of the adult male (16+) population participate in sport at least once a week compared to only 30.2% of females.
