The team's victory on Sunday in Switzerland was such a proud moment for our city and the whole nation.
Cllr Daniel Cowan, Leader of the Council said: "We were bursting with Civic Pride as we welcomed the Lionesses home to London Southend Airport, especially Michelle Agyemang, a former Southend High School for Girls pupil. The team's victory on Sunday in Switzerland was such a proud moment for our city and the whole nation. We couldn't be happier for them!"
For anyone feeling inspired by Michelle and the Lionesses to get active, explore our wide range of local opportunities through Active Southend.
