'Exploring Arsenal' for International Women's Day

To celebrate International Women’s Day, our Community team led a special workshop at Emirates Stadium for female students.

'Exploring Arsenal' offered girls from across our secondary school programmes the opportunity to ask questions and hear about the different career pathways available at our club.

75 students attended and had the opportunity to network with 25 of our female staff members, to promote diversity and inspire more girls to pursue a career in football.

The day began with some words from our Chief Operations Officer, Karen Smart, who touched on her own journey into football, having spent 20 years of her career dedicated to the Royal Air Force.
