I am absolutely committed to supporting women's sport at every opportunity including pushing for greater participation. Sport England\u2019s latest Active Lives data, published in April last year, shows that men (63%) are still more likely to be active than women (60%).<\/p>
There are some fantastic initiatives that exist to encourage women to take up sport and physical activity, for example Sport England\u2019s This Girl Can<\/em> campaign, which has already inspired millions of women and girls to get active regardless of shape, size and ability. This Girl Can<\/em> 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>"}
