<p>I am absolutely committed to supporting women's sport at every opportunity including
pushing for greater participation. I recognise the impact that the pandemic has had
on women’s sport. Sport England’s latest Active Lives data, published in April this
year, shows that men (63%) are still more likely to be active than women (60%).</p><p>There
are some fantastic initiatives that exist to encourage women to take up sport and
physical activity, for example Sport England’s This Girl Can campaign, which has already
inspired millions of women and girls to get active regardless of shape, size and ability.
This Girl Can has also been working with ukactive and the Chartered Institute for
the Management of Sport and Physical Activity (CIMSPA) to provide resources and training
to help leisure and fitness facilities ensure their spaces are safe and inclusive
for all women.</p>
