Cymru Women’s Sport is a not-for-profit, charitable organisation dedicated to ensuring women and girls across Wales have equitable opportunities in sport.
Our vision is simple, urgent and clear
Equitable opportunities for women and girls in sport in Wales
Across participation, leadership and investment, women and girls still face persistent inequality. This need to change.
We will do this by…
-
We influence policy, funding, and governance to prioritise women and girls in sport.
-
We build networks and opportunities for people to come together, learn, and grow.
-
CELEBRATING
We share stories, successes, and best practices that highlight the brilliance of women in Welsh sport.
Our Values frame how we operate, and what others can expect to see from us
POSITIVELY DISRUPT - We challenge the status quo with courage and respect.
MEANINGFUL INCLUSION - We elevate all women, with a focus on those historically underrepresented.
PURPOSEFUL COLLABORATION - We build deliberate partnerships to accelerate gender equity in sport.
Our History - Watch Her Go
Launching at the Senedd in 2019, the Watch Her Go campaign highlighted the huge potential of women in sport in Wales that was not being realised.
Some of the biggest voices in Welsh sport and beyond were present and committed to help making the change needed.
The Pandemic and development of Cymru Women’s Sport
Due to the pandemic, the Amdani movement was unfortunately unable to grow. Through conversations with the original organisers, slowly the development of Cymru Women’s Sport came together under three clear pillars to support change for women in sport in Wales.
