Your time to be seen.
Your time to fly.
We're a community on a mission to help Black women and WOC go further in wellness, work and life – and it starts with looking out for ourselves.

Started on the streets of London in 2018.

We came for the running and stayed for the sisterhood. Somewhere between the miles, the conversations evolved to changing bodies, dismissed symptoms and answers that never came. Now we’re putting our stories on the record and campaigning to be heard.

About us
Advocacy + Research

Every one of us has a story. Let’s put ours on the record.

Too often, our experiences go unrecorded, and what isn’t recorded gets ignored. Black women and women of colour are underrepresented in health research, so the advice we’re given rarely reflects our bodies or our lives.

We’re changing that by building our own evidence. Tell us about your experiences with fibroids, perimenopause, or anything else your body has thrown at you: the wins, the frustrations, the times you weren’t heard, and what you wish someone had told you sooner.

Every story gives us the insight we need to push for better guidance, policies, support and care.

What our community says

“

Fly Girl is a safe space and a sisterhood that pushes me to achieve my full potential. I love that this is a group of like-minded women who are kind, passionate about their careers, but also want to incorporate wellness into their lives. That can be through good nutrition, movement, self-care or anything else that enable them to be the best version of themselves. I love growth, challenges and evolution but sometimes l can limit or doubt myself. But with FGC I'm reminded to think bigger, believe in myself, occupy the space, and do the things l am scared of (like a marathon!).

What I love most about the collective is that it’s a safe space for black and brown women. Everyone is so encouraging and welcoming, this space allows everyone to show up as their best self.

The Fly Girl Collective is beautifully rooted in principles of caring for one another and lifting each other up. Life can throw all sorts at you, but this is a community where you will be seen, heard and celebrated. Black women and women of colour deserve nothing less!

`'I love how supportive and inspirational each individual is (in the collective). Many of my role models today are members of the collective. "
