Here at Gymshark, we believe that all women belong in every corner of the fitness industry. That’s why we’re using our platform to highlight our Gymshark Changemakers; the women* going above and beyond to make change, break the bias and use their glass ceilings as dance floors.

And that's where you, and The Changemaker's Grant come in.

Below, you'll find everything you need to be able to complete your grant application 👇.
