Consultation submissions

Our aim is to ensure that the needs and rights of women and girls are properly considered in policy-making. Much of the established policy and practice that is harmful to females was agreed without such consideration. We have to speak up for ourselves. To that end we provide written submissions to relevant consultations. Below you’ll find submissions we have made to various UK government consultations, to United Nations requests for input, and to sporting bodies. There’s lots of useful data, links and information that you may find useful in your own lobbying.
