Story
The Frank Bruno Foundation was founded as a direct result of World Champion Boxer, Frank Bruno, wanting to create a positive change in communities. Frank has spoken openly of the vital role exercise has played in his battle with mental ill-health and is now driven to help others battle their mental health challenges.
The Foundation exists to provide support, encouragement and the motivation to succeed for those currently facing or recovering from early stage mental ill health issues. The Foundation aims to achieve this by providing opportunities to participate in non-contact boxing and mental health and wellbeing programmes.
The Foundation has worked tirelessly to create a safe space for their clients to access, where they can receive support and programmes that give them the tools to help improve their own mental health. This has given clients routine and purpose, something which helps to improve self-confidence, self-regulation, self-worth, social skills and mental wellbeing.
