"It is hard to believe that it’s 2024 and there

"It is hard to believe that it’s 2024 and there were no existing such guidelines or instructions. This is overdue. Safer Sport posters almost act as a contract for both sides: improper conduct is outlined in black and white, as are signposts to raise the alarm if and when necessary.”

“The evolution of women’s sport, and crucially women’s confidence inside sport, requires we be very clear on safeguarding. Taking intimate health matters out of the surgery is only progress if new health and fitness spaces are genuinely and accountably safe.”

Help us get our new posters in every gym, school a

Help us get our new posters in every gym, school and sports club in the country.

Today we are finally unveiling our Safer Sport Project! We have created a range of posters to ensure girls and women know what is and isn't okay when sports coaches, staff and third parties talk to them about female health, which you can download now using the link in our bio.

It's the first time this kind of material has been created for non-medical spaces in the UK.

We want to get these posters up in changing rooms, classrooms, public toilets and sports clubs. Our new Safer Sport posters cover topics such as sports bras, pelvic health and breast injury. They explain how discussing these issues can be beneficial, and what to expect during conversations. Posters also cover what is and is not normal practice - and how to raise the alarm.

Women's sport is on the up, and we want to educate and protect every woman and girl in sport by putting accurate information about what normal is into their hands.

Send us a DM with your posters up and we will share them on our stories!

Is there more fertility pressure on women than men

Is there more fertility pressure on women than men?

Dr Bella says: I'd say there is, yes.

If a couple's struggling to conceive, it's usually the woman who makes changes to diet and lifestyle. If problems persist it's usually the woman who goes for scans and invasive exams and takes folic acid.

Women often assume they're the problem, but a man who smokes or drinks excessively, or is inactive or overweight has work to do.

Sometimes it's just luck. A woman can simply be allergic to a partner's sperm - it can be as cruel as that.

The woman may feel most pressure but as we know - it takes two.
