We skate. We train. We support each other.
We can break the bias in our communities.
We can break the bias in our workplaces.
We can break the bias in our schools, colleges and universities.
Together, we can all break the bias - on International Women's Day and beyond. #IWD2022

@derbyC8K3 We had THE BEST time at Put Up Your Toques hosted by @TriCityRD (even though we didn't know what a toque was 😂) Also a shameless plug for our #EuroClash tournament - we loved bringing teams from all over the UK & Europe to #Newcastle, hope we'll be able to do it again some day!

[Newcastle Roller Derby UK @nclrollerderby]

We're buzzing to say we've been awarded £6200 of #SportEngland This Girl Can Community Funding to support our members’ return to skates. Thank you @Sport_England!
