On the 14th October 2023 we'd raised £525 with 15 supporters in 42 days. But as every pound matters, we're continuing to collect donations from supporters.
Hailsham Boxing Club is an England Boxing Affiliated Club. We are driven by a passion to change lives for the better and bring our community together. For our community we provide:
FREE BOXING FOR ALL CHILDREN
Training sessions are accessible to everyone. Our coaches, through positive mentoring, instil discipline, dedication and respect in our youngsters to guide them to stay on the right path.
ADULT BOXING
For adults we provide a full programme of low cost training sessions for all abilities and ages. Boxing is proven to increase self esteem, build confidence and elevate mental health through exercise and team activities.
SMART - ADDICTION RECOVERY
Our volunteer coaches facilitate free SMART recovery meetings to support adults to and in recovery with any addiction. Breaking negative cycles.
HOLIDAY CLUBS
We provide fun boxing themed holidays clubs to ensure children can access a free meal during school holidays.
CHALLENGES
Hailsham Boxing Club regularly take part in challenges to raise money for the club or other local causes. We have climbed mountains, skydived, walked many miles This gives our members a goal to aim for and supports recovery for those struggling with addiction.
Research supports the positive impact boxing has on mental and physical health. It teaches discipline, respect and resilience which, taught from a young age, helps keep young people on the right path and out of the youth justice system. We ensure boxing training is accessible for all by providing free sessions for all children.
Supporting adults with addiction to turn their lives around has a much wider impact than just those struggling. There is a positive ripple effect through their family and friends and it can help break negative generational cycles.
Taking part in our challenges gives members a sense of achievement and many friendships are formed.
Seven Sisters Ladies Walk
Unfortunately our old minibus, which we all loved and took us on many adventures and competitions, was deemed beyond repair so sadly we have had to say goodbye.
Our challenges and competitions are nationwide. We would like to make these accessible to everyone by providing safe transport and need the funds to buy a new minibus.
The new minibus will be used to take our members on new challenges and competitions. Providing them with a focus and sense of achievement and the chance to make new friends. Bringing our community together.
