Our new funding pledge to enable gender equality

Today we've set out our intention to work with the sport and physical activity organisations we fund to ensure gender equality is at the heart of how they're run.

Along with UK Sport, we've published a new pledge which recognises that women and girls still face significant inequalities across all areas of the sporting system - from community and school sport right up to the highest levels.

The pledge is part of The Equal Sport Project, an unprecedented cross-sector initiative to make the UK the world's leading nation for women and girls in sport.
