In November 2024 Women in Sport held our 40th anniversary conference in London.
In this episode of the podcast we’ll hear some highlights from the event, featuring a discussion chaired by Julia George with three high-profile women in sport, talking about their vision for the future – and what makes them mad about the lack of progress towards true equality.
Paula Dunn MBE is the first female head coach appointed by UK Athletics
Lisa O’Keefe MBE is the Secretary General of the International Working Group on Women and Sport
Kelly Simmonds OBE spent thirty years at the Football Association, latterly as the director of the women’s professional game
All of them faced down some kind of prejudice, misogyny or discrimination on their way to the top.

About Women in Sport
Because women and girls belong
DONATE and support our work here
Founded in 1984, Women in Sport is the longest-standing charity in its field with a proud history of securing change for women and girls. At its heart lies a deep understanding of the needs of women and girls in relation to sport and a passion to address the stubborn gender inequalities that still exist.
Based on expert insight, Women in Sport challenges the system, offers solutions and inspires change. Not only do we believe in girls and women having access to fair and safe sport for the joy, fulfilment and lifelong benefits it offers, but we care about this because it can address health inequalities and help society to thrive.
We continue to build strong partnerships with the corporate, sports and leisure sectors, grow our influence in parliament and develop powerful projects. By doing so we have led the field in creating change for teenage girls and challenged the system to better serve women in midlife.
