HER Outdoors Week: Get out and get active!

Sport Ireland's HER Outdoors Week is up and running until 14t August!

It aims to celebrate and encourage more females to get out and enjoy the benefits of being in the outdoors while bringing visibility to the opportunities for females to get involved in outdoor physical activity.

The first ever HER Outdoors Week was held in August 2021 and it was a huge success. With over 250 events taking place nationwide and nearly 5,000 females active across 7 days, Sport Ireland want to build on this for the 2022 campaign.

This week will be an opportunity for ALL females to escape to the outdoors and try something new. For such a tiny island, there are so many incredible outdoor activities on offer and this should be celebrated to the fullest!

Whatever you do, make sure to #FindYourOutdoors.

Three ways to get involved:

  • To find an event near you during HER Outdoors Week, check out Sport Ireland's HER Outdoors webpage to find out more HERE!
  • Contact your Local Sports Partnership to see if there is an event happening near you!
  • Just get up and go! Grab your friend, sister, mother, or grandmother and #FindYourOutdoors in your own way!

After you have spend the day being active, why not sit and watch RTÉ's Keep It Up where we follow nine girls under the guidance of Coach Emer O'Neill as they fall in love with sport!
