This Girl Can…is back !

Friday 6th January 2017

National Campaign Overview:

Sport England launch the next phase of the This Girl Can Campaign on 27 January 2017. The target audience has been extended and is now 14-60 years and there is more focus on building confidence and resilience.

The campaign has two activation objectives;

Primary objective:

  • To change the way sport and physical activity is delivered to women.

To provide appropriate, tailored sport and physical activity opportunities that respond to women’s needs and fears.

Secondary objective:

  •       The way sport and physical activity is promoted to women
  1. To signpost women to locally available opportunities
  2. To make the national campaign feel locally relevant and like “it’s something for me”
  3. To amplify and raise awareness of the campaign at a local level

This Girl Can

We understand that some of the television adverts are likely to include the following sports Pilates / Trampolining / Cycling / Kick Boxing / Power walking / Judo / Jogging

Local Activation

Why?

SASSOT is aware that there are fantastic activities on offer for women across the county and we would like to capitalise on the re-launch of the This Girl Can campaign to raise the profile of local opportunities.

Working in partnership with you we would like to develop some targeted media activity that would raise the profile of your activities and allow residents of Staffordshire and Stoke-on-Trent to identify with the campaign locally.

What Will I Get Out Of It?

  1. Increased media exposure and profile of your activities to a wider audience.
  2. Opportunity to promote new female activities or reenergise those lower attended activities
  3. Support and guidance on profiling your target female audience and producing promotional material
  4. Shared learning across the county

Where?

SASSOT is collating ‘human interest’ stories that bring the campaign to life and inspire others to get involved.  Working through our communication channels below we would appreciate your help in identifying local girls/women that have used sport / physical activity to make positive changes to their lives.

  • Social Media (Twitter / Facebook / You Tube)
  • Website presence
  • Engagement of local radio
  • Engagement of local press

How?

We would be grateful if you could complete the following page with a few details about your activities and return to us by 20th January to allow us to engage the relevant communication channels, ready for the launch date. Although the campaign is obviously ongoing we would like to do a concentrated push from 27th Jan until end of February.
