The Spring and Summer of 2024 is shaping up quite nicely in the sporting world for a number of reasons…
However, for the blog team here at SW/S, it’s the fact that our little group of sports-obsessed, dedicated and fantastic ladies are gaining some new members. With Morven, and myself busy as busy can be it’s superb to have some teammates to bring a fresh new perspective to the site.
So, get yourself a cuppa, take a seat, and have a read with me all about the two newest members of the team, Emily and Faatima.

At the beginning of 2023, I interviewed and got selected for SportScotland’s Young People’s Sport Panel; a board that aims to give young sportspeople a voice and the opportunity to represent their experiences and shape the future of sport in Scotland. I’ve had some amazing experiences on the panel; being surrounded by a cohort of like-minded, inspirational fellow panel members and supported by the incredible staff who run the panel and work together to remove barriers around gender, race and disability that currently exists in sport, aiming to increase the accessibility of sport in Scotland. My goals in sport centre around increasing this accessibility within sport and presenting the stories,experiences and successes of individuals who have faced setbacks or barriers within sport.
I’m keen to support and be involved with Scottish Women in Sport, since their focus onCelebrating women’s sporting success and promoting and educating individuals about theworld of female sport is incredibly inspirational and something that I cannot wait to continue to be a part of.
