Close Combat Martial Arts Cost Of Living Funding

Aim: To raise funds to support our current students and open up training opportunities for the wider community during the cost of living crisis.

Close Combat Martial Arts provides so many benefits to our members, from fitness to positive mental health. We provide a social group with many positive achievements and a good structure for many people of all ages, who struggle in life. We support those with mental and physical disabilities, women who have come from abusive relationships and children and vulnerable adults of all ages, from self-confidence issues to more serious mental health problems, and learning difficulties.

The aim of this fundraiser is to support more people in the local community and grow our club into a full-fledged social enterprise. We are currently trying to save every penny to move into larger premises so that we can run larger classes to help more people in the community and to provide additional space for our current students to train more often for a lower cost. Many of our students are struggling and we want to offer concessionary memberships to those who can't afford the benefits of martial arts, and to those current students who want to train more often but are struggling with a tight budget.
