About the campaign
The Campaign
“Bristol Girls Can’ is the local activation to the widely acclaimed Sport England ‘This Girl Can’ campaign.
As part of the campaign we have a Bristol Girls Can podcast series, a series of video stories as well as blogs which focus on key barriers for women and girls getting and staying active, as well as engaging with key individuals and organisations around the city to highlight the key work already happening within the community.
Podcasts:
Episode One – An introduction to Bristol Girls Can
Episode Two – Tackling hate crimes, discrimination, and making women feel safe
Episode Three – The importance of being active for mental health
Episode Four – Activity during pregnancy and post-natal support
Episode Five – Mums in business – juggling life, being active, and entrepreneurship
Episode Six – The importance of elite-level female role models (2025)
Together, we commit to creating a movement where women and girls find strength, community, and joy through being active. Our commitment is to support, inspire, and uplift each other as we embark on this journey towards a healthier, happier future—for ourselves and for generations to come
The aim is about movement and physical activity and the local activation for 2024 will be a community focused campaign, encouraging community activity and an active lifestyle across Bristol.
Key themes:
- Enabling women and girls
- Empowering women and girls
- Giving confidence to women girls
- Communicating that Bristol is for everyone. A welcoming, supportive, varied and multi-cultural community.
