Edwards bidding to blaze further diversity trail at World Championships
Kyra Edwards appreciates patience will be a virtue when it comes to improving diversity in British rowing and hopes her upcoming World Championship appearance will act as inspiration for the next generation. The 25-year-old is the only black member of the Great Britain squad heading to the World Championships in the Czech Republic later this month, a situation she is working with key figures at British Rowing and UK Sport to improve. Ad She has long been a vocal advocate of challenging stereotypes within her sport and described herself as feeling like ‘a guest in a white, privileged space' in a Metro interview two years ago.
