Empowering Our Community Through Boxing: A Three-Month Journey

empowering our community through boxing a threemonth journey

We are thrilled to share the success of our recent three-month project, generously funded by JCDecaux. This initiative aimed to empower and uplift individuals in our community through the sport of boxing, fostering discipline, resilience, and personal growth.

A special thank you goes out to Fats Gym for their unwavering support of COPE CIC’s cause and for providing us with a venue to host our sessions. Their contribution has been invaluable in making this project a reality.

Project Goals and Launch

Our project, launched in August 2024, was designed to strengthen the health and wellbeing of young adults in Greater Manchester. Initially, engagement was slow, but we have seen a steady increase in participation week by week. This growth is a testament to the project’s impact and the community’s trust in our mission.

Positive Outcomes and Community Impact

One of the most encouraging outcomes has been the increased participation of women. Many have expressed that having a safe space to exercise in a non-threatening environment has been extremely positive. This feedback highlights the importance of creating inclusive and supportive spaces for all members of our community.

Looking Ahead

As we reflect on the past three months, we are inspired by the stories of personal growth and resilience that have emerged. We look forward to continuing this journey and expanding our reach to empower even more individuals through the transformative power of boxing.

Thank you once again to JCDecaux and Fats Gym for their support. Together, we are making a difference in the lives of many.
