Addressing this issue, Dame Jessica emphasized the need for multi-faceted solutions. It's not just about one simple fix; a collective effort is required to bridge the gaps. Key recommendations include:

Support in the Workplace: Initiatives aimed at supporting active lifestyles within professional environments can encourage more women to exercise regularly.
Community Engagement: Encouraging group activities and social connections through sports can make physical activity enjoyable rather than a chore.
"The first step is understanding the barriers women currently face and collectively taking action to address them," she stated.
