This Girl Can
This Girl Can is a national campaign which celebrates active women up and down the country who are doing their thing no matter how well they do it, how they look or even how red their face gets.
It has been a massive success in getting more females to take part in sport and physical activity - and we want to localise this success in Rushcliffe.
