Fighting in memory of VCBC trainer Johnny Whittam.

Also fighting for Dorset Mind, the local mental health charity. DM are here to make sure anyone with a mental health challenge has somewhere to turn to for advice and support. DM educate, challenge stigma and support people to recover from mental health difficulties. 

DM offer befriending, support groups, information services and training in Dorset, visit the website for details: www.dorsetmind.uk. They also have volunteer opportunities, if you can spare a few hours a month to help change someone's life.

Personally I have never suffered but I know people who have and have experienced the cruel grip it has on some people - At the boxing event there will be physical pain but in life there is also mental pain and we need to raise awareness to this, it can be stopped and it can be done together.

Thanks for reading and if you donate, just know it's for a cracking cause
