Fighting for Women in Prison | Bel’s WCF Fight

Hi friends! I’ve been participating in White Collar Fighter’s 8 week boxing bootcamp and preparing myself for a Fight Night on 30th October 2022 where I’ll fight a worthy adversary in the ring in front of hundreds of people (halp). Whether I win or lose (but hopefully win), it’s all about getting a bit battered and bruised to raise money for a worthy cause.

By supporting me as a contender through your donation, you are also supporting my chosen charity continue their great work. Women in Prison are a national charity that not only campaign to significantly reduce the women’s prison population through public policy advocacy, they also provide frontline support directly to women who have been affected by the criminal justice system in various ways to create safer and healthier communities. They are also undertaking life-changing work by sustaining and growing a network of specialist Women’s Centres so that women have a safe and non-judgmental place to share their experiences, build confidence and self-esteem, learn about their legal rights, and recieve vocational training. In addition, these centres adopt a holistic approach and cater for a range of needs such as domestic and sexual violence, physical health, mental health, harmful substance use, parenting, employment and housing. This holistic support is proven to reduce reoffending more effectively than a prison sentence. This charity and the women they support, who in turn support each other, are real life superheroes making real change possible. 

So please give anything you can (if you can) to keep me (and my ever growing baby biceps) going into the final weeks of the program and to support Women in Prison to continue this transformative work. All donations go directly to them.

I’ve never done anything like this before and I won’t lie, it’s been challenging! But I’m working hard to get stronger, fitter, and faster each week to get this done. I can’t even begin to put into words how much your contribution towards my target will mean to me. No donation is too small and every penny counts!

Thank you and love to you all - Bel x
