Challenge 112 (112x2 min rounds wheelchair boxing)

Aim

To help provide free adaptive boxing classes for disabled kids and adults in a safe space. To deliver physical fitness, achievement and fun

Kronik Warrior UK is the country's first and only Adaptive Boxing Academy to be affiliated with a national governing body (England Boxing). The organisation is made up of an incredible team of coaches and mentors who each live with a disability or long-term health condition. 

I started adaptive boxing online during lock down, which was a difficult time. My mental health deteriorated, as did my physical health. Unless I train my strength declines courtesy of my MS, and my mental health plunges. I find training joyful and a release and encourage others to train for the same reason. It is intimidating, especially as a disabled person to go to a gym, especially a boxing gym. However the benefits are huge.

Through Kronik Warriors, my mental and physical health and strength has improved, and I have seen this in the others. I am a mentor with them, it is joyful to see the change in our disabled adaptive boxing community, especially kids. I love the fact that people are surprised at their our abilities, especially when given a chance, and encouraged to believe in them selves. 

The Kronik Warrior Community is a special place, and I wish to do all that I can to assist in providing free classes. 

112 people a week loose their lives to suicide. The 112 Challenge raises awareness of this.

My challenge, to raise funds, will be to complete 112  x  two minute boxing rounds from my wheelchair all in the same day. Please help me with this. Help me raise funds :)
