Resources to help support women from ethnically diverse communities to be active
Women from Asian and Black backgrounds are more likely to be physically inactive. There are many different reason for this, different groups of women have different needs and the solutions must reflect that. Women, from culturally diverse backgrounds also face greater barriers to experiencing and enjoying outdoor spaces, from lack of access, to lack or representation and cultural needs not being met.
Recent research from This Girl Can highlights that almost half (46%) of Asian Muslim women would feel more welcome getting active in women-only spaces.
