72% of women in the UK change their outdoor activity routines in winter due to safety concerns. These aren’t just numbers, they’re a wake-up call. Women are consciously avoiding movement, changing routines, and feeling unsafe simply for trying to stay active. This needs to change. This isn’t just a conversation for women and girls, safety is a collective responsibility. It’s a call to action for men, allies, leaders, coaches, colleagues – we all need a seat at the table. Join our insightful webinar where we bring together voices from sport, advocacy and community action featuring excellent speakers from Our Streets Now, Boldli, England Athletics, and GoodGym.
