Driving Change in Women’s Sport with Sue Anstiss

2024 is an exciting year for women’s sport, not least with the Olympics in Paris on the horizon – the first Games in history to offer gender parity.

Sue Anstiss MBE has been involved in women’s sport for more than three decades – dedicating much of her working life to fighting for equality and driving change. 

We explore the impact of teams like the Lionesses, some fascinating history, the challenges which still lie ahead and what equality in sport can do more broadly within society.  

Sue directed the recent Netflix documentary ‘Game On – The Unstoppable Rise of Women’s Sport’ featuring trailblazers like Paralympian Baroness Tanni Grey-Thompson, broadcaster Clare Balding and Olympic gold heptathlete Dame Denise Lewis.
