Why Access to Sport is SO Important for Women & Girls with Eartha Pond


Listen Later

Eartha Pond is a former professional footballer, Councillor and Educator who is providing hundreds of women and girls with access to sport and movement as founder of the ESP Foundation and Girls Allowed programme. 


In today’s episode, Eartha tells us why sports bras are so vital for getting young girls moving (and how she petitioned for them to be part of school uniforms), how sport can increase our sense of confidence and the importance of making sure everyone gets to the starting line.


Plus, Eartha and Joslyn discuss the first time they met when Joslyn was hosting Serena Williams at the LTA with Nike, and why getting others moving feels like a responsibility for them both.
