The London Borough of Tower Hamlets, in partnership with Be Well and other local organisations, is proud to celebrate International Women and Girls Week 2025 with a week-long programme of community sports and physical activities for females aged 5 to 50+.
From swimming and boxing, to self-defence, badminton, basketball, and football tournaments, this initiative is about more than just sports – it’s about breaking barriers, creating opportunities, and empowering women and girls across the borough.
We’re committed to making these activities as accessible and affordable as possible, ensuring that more women and girls can take part, get active, and enjoy the benefits of movement.
By getting active together, we’re aiming to improve health, boost confidence, and strengthen communities. Whether you’re trying something new or rediscovering a passion, this week is all about celebrating movement, inclusion, and the power of women in sport.
The full schedule, including how to book various activities, can be found in the programme below.
