What does a British rifle shooter look like? I bet the image you have in your head is nothing like shooting star Ruth Mwandumba and that's why All Girls Roar were thrilled to have her on the show. Ruth is breaking barriers as one of the very few black athletes in competitive shooting, She became the first black person to represent her country and hopes to inspire others to take up the sport. In our conversation Ruth talks about how she was first introduced to the sport and why she loves it so much. She also touches on some of the challenges she has faced with negative stereotyping and a lack of diversity in the sport. She also talks about her role models and how she feels about being a role model. Ruth hopes to increase diversity within shooting sports across the UK and has been working alongside British Shooting to make this a reality. Whilst training Ruth also is studying for a PhD in Epidemiology. You can find Ruth on Instagram @ruthmwandumba and on Twitter @ruthMwandumba Please do subscribe, review and rate us.
