We are delighted to introduce the sixth episode of our Women in Sport Podcast, where we discuss developments, initiatives, and issues relating to women in sports and the associated legal implications.
In this episode, Partner Emma Bartlett and Trainee Solicitor Mitchell Blythe are joined by a special guest, Dee Bright, who is the Chair of SpursAbility, the Tottenham Hotspur Disabled Supports Association, to discuss the following:
- Dee’s background in the world of sport, including how she first became introduced to football by watching Wimbledon F.C., and her personal experience of inequality in the sport of horse racing.
- What inspired Dee to get involved in with the Tottenham Hotspur Disabled Supporters Association, SpursAbility.
- The groundbreaking accessibility and inclusivity services at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and the user lead strategy as the driving force behind them.
- The viral press conference moment between Tottenham Hotspur manager, Ange Postecoglou, and Dee’s son.
- The positive affect that the promotion of disability inclusion has on diversity and inclusion more generally in an organisation.
You can also listen to the episode on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or SoundCloud.
