Edith Morley Lecture 2020 – guest panel discussion<\/span><\/p>\n

To mark International Women\u2019s Day, we are delighted to present this annual event in memory of Edith Morley, with a panel discussion bringing together female innovators and game-changers from the sporting world. Historically, sports have been a male dominated arena with very low numbers of women involved. Today, the number of female athletes are rising significantly, yet, women\u2019s sports are highly underrepresented in the media, and female athletes earn considerably less than their male counterparts.<\/p>\n

A guest panel will cover a wide range of topics including how these remarkable sportswomen have overcome barriers and gone onto achieve great success in their fields. The panel includes Fara Williams<\/strong>,<\/strong> Reading FC Women and England player<\/strong>, Kelly Chambers<\/strong>, Director of Women\u2019s and Girls Football, Reading FC Women<\/strong>, Cath Bishop<\/strong>, Olympic Rower,<\/strong> and Alice Kirkup<\/strong>, Captain of the University of Reading\u2019s netball first team.<\/p>\n

Admission free. Booking advisable. Please click here<\/a><\/strong> for more information and to book<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
