CLUB JOSEPHINE

Who we are

Description

Club Josephine is a UK community organisation creating inclusive opportunities for girls and women to access sport, water, nature and wellbeing activities. We focus on those facing barriers such as cost, low confidence, lack of equipment, safety concerns or limited access to welcoming spaces. Nationally, only 47.8% of children meet the recommended 60 minutes of daily physical activity, and 39% of women are not active enough for full health benefits. Girls also face specific barriers, including fear of judgement and lack of confidence. Through Waterside Girls, we use kayaking, paddleboarding, water safety and environmental learning to help girls become more active, build confidence, connect with local waterways and feel represented in outdoor spaces. We are especially committed to creating opportunities beyond major capital cities, where girls may have fewer funded, accessible and exciting activities.
