Help KGs ABC affiliate with England Boxing

Hi, we are KGs Boxing and Fitness C.I.C located in Longton, Stoke-on-Trent.

I Kudzanai Huni am the co - founder, like many people I know, I haven't had the smoothest experience growing up. I however found my space of security the first day I walked into a boxing gym, my outlook on my life changed and I have since been a student of the sport.

The boxing gym was the one place I found a safe space to release pent up energy and find that direction I needed. This in turn triggered my journey to bettering my life and the lives of those around me.

I quickly found my way boxing as an amateur for The right Stuff, Stafford Town amateur boxing club during my late teens - early twenties.

Life continued to take shape, although I had certain priorities I have never strayed too far away from the boxing gym.

Now having the opportunity to manage a boxing gym, I have already seen our boxing classes create changes in the lives of people in the local community that have attended.

All thanks to our facilities I have watched confidence grow in individuals, friendships form, knowledge, skill and ability increase incredibly in a short space of time.

We aim to do more to advocate for people in similar situations as I personally found direction in the gym.

Its truly an honour to be able to provide a space for self discovery and growth.

We at KGs Boxing Fitness C.I.C are currently in the process of affiliating KGs Boxing Academy with England Boxing.

To us this means we would be a recognized amateur boxing Club in England. We would be able to offer our attendees an opportunity to compete and/or develop a career in boxing.

We do however, need to meet some requirements in order for us to be accepted as a boxing club.

We are currently making those changes to our facilities in order to meet the standards set by England Boxing. We however could do with some help in order to efficiently complete this transition.

We need some new equipment, and to make some changes to the facilities in order to meet the standard set by England Boxing.

We need access to a defibrillator, a new boxing ring, more gloves and head guards as well as marketing, administration and delivery costs.

Its important for us to affiliate as an amateur boxing club, this will surely give us completeness in regards to what we can offer our attendees.

Our local community can benefit from us affiliating as a boxing club based on my strong beliefs on how the sport of boxing can change lives.

As a person with lived experience, I would like to offer opportunities that I took advantage of to many other people.

Many people would benefit from reform, self development and introspect gained through participating in the sport of Boxing.

We are organizing a series of hikes to the highest peaks across the United Kingdom in light to raise awareness for our need to make this transition.

We will continue making the relevant changes to our organization and facilities until the day we are recognized as an official amateur boxing club, after that, it's the championships.
