“With high-profile women in football involved and leading our football club, we have the capability to build a fun and inclusive environment for girls and women to enjoy playing.

“We want to inspire girls and women to come and play in a safe, fun and welcoming club that wants to build a club around them. This is an opportunity to ask four professionals questions and speak to a forward-thinking, inclusive football club.”
