The project delivers five workshops to eight high schools every week, including topics such as smoking cessation, alcohol and drugs, fitness, nutrition. The girls are provided with gym sessions with qualified instructors, lunch-time multi-sport sessions of their choice, practical sessions in nutrition provided by Wigan Athletic FC players and free match-day tickets as rewards for such things as 100% attendance. Girls’ representatives are invited to steering group meetings every six weeks to express interests and activities that the groups would like to do.
