St Mary’s University in Twickenham has been awarded a £5,500 grant to explore the effects of badminton and running on women’s health.

The Badminton World Federation grant will enable the university to offer free badminton and running sessions for eight weeks to women in the borough who do not currently exercise for 150 minutes a week.
