The Last Bastion tells the remarkable and inspiring story of Women in Sport, the UK's first charity dedicated to breaking down the barriers that have long excluded women and girls from the world of sport.
For over forty years, this pioneering organisation has been a catalyst for change, fighting for gender equality at every level - from grassroots campaigns to shaping national policy. Award-winning author Rachel Hewitt blends vivid storytelling with sharp analysis, uncovering the passion, resilience and unyielding determination of the visionary women behind the movement.
Drawing on extensive archival research, The Last Bastion illuminates the charity's relentless pursuit of structural change, celebrating its ground-breaking successes while confronting the unfinished battle for true equality. Hewitt examines the backlash against progress and highlights the persistent cultural hurdles that still keep women and girls from enjoying an equal playing field.
Thought-provoking and essential, this book is a powerful testament to the transformative impact of collective action and the enduring fight for fairness in sport. The Last Bastion is a story of passion, perseverance and the lasting legacy of women who refused to accept the status quo.
