Women and girls

A space for girls to get active, build confidence and feel supported

UsGirls is a programme designed to support women and girls to be active in a safe, welcoming and empowering environment.


Sessions focus on more than just physical activity. They also support:

  • Confidence and self-esteem
  • Physical and Mental wellbeing
  • Friendships and social connection
  • Life skills such as resilience and healthy habits

Activities are fun, inclusive and shaped around what participants enjoy.

We also offer opportunities to become US Girls ambassadors, helping young women develop leadership skills and gain valuable experience.

A place to move, grow and feel confident.

First time?

If it’s your first time coming along, you can expect a friendly and relaxed welcome.
• You don’t need any experience or special equipment
• Just wear comfortable clothes and trainers
• You can come on your own or with a friend
• Coaches and leaders will introduce themselves and help you settle in

A consent form will need to be completed, which can be done at your first session. 

If you feel nervous, that’s completely normal – many people attending are trying something new too.
