Monye will lead the independent diversity and inclusion advisory group which will "shape plans" and "challenge the RFU on its progress" in the area. "It's important that we get this right so that anyone, from anywhere, feels rugby is a game for them," Monye said. Former England World Cup winner and current Wasps Ladies director of rugby Giselle Mather is vice-chair of the group, which the RFU hopes will help the sport "reflect the diversity in society".
