She opens up about overcoming a serious injury and the resilience it taught her, the Lionesses’ historic Euro 2022 victory and its lasting impact on women’s football, and her move to Brighton last summer, where she’s thrilled to be part of an exciting project on the South Coast. Finally, Fran shares why it is so important to her to be an advocate for women and how she is leading the conversation around how society discusses body image.
