The Young Women Lead Committee is a leadership programme for young women aged 30 and under who live in Scotland. It is delivered in partnership with the Scottish Parliament and the Young Women’s Movement. The programme focuses on increasing political participation and was created from a need to address the underrepresentation of young women in politics.

This year, the Committee chose as its topic of inquiry-the relationship young women have with sport and physical activity, with particular regard to issues that might prevent participation.
