Story

Please support me on my mission to raise as much money for Carney's Community in Battersea and Fitzroy Lodge in Lambeth, two London Charities that work together to support and engage young people through boxing, taking disadvantaged young people off the street and away from a life of crime, giving them discipline and self-respect.

I have learnt first-hand how Mark Reigate's (Head Coach and Co-Founder of Carney's and Fitzroy Lodge) passion to improve our community is vital to the success of these two charities that rely entirely on voluntary donations for survival. 

It is because I have seen these changes, through support and mentoring, that I have decided to raise money and run my first marathon of 42km across 3 countries.

Please donate now and help me raise as much money for these two important charities. Knives down, Gloves Up.
