Create a new permanent bank holiday celebrating and encouraging women in sport
Create a new, permanent bank holiday on July 31st.
Women’s sport has traditionally not received the support and publicity which men’s sport has enjoyed for so long. If girls can grow up with an annual celebration of women in sport it will help to encourage them to participate throughout their lives. The extra bank holiday would give girls and women more time to participate in sport, and everyone an opportunity to watch and support women’s sport. It would also be a fitting tribute to the Women’s Euro ‘22 team and their achievements.
