Strong Box is a registered charity whose aim is to promote community participation in healthy sports by providing suitable facilities for fitness based around amateur and recreational boxing.
The organisation was set up by the donors and trustees who provided the initial expertise and funding to enable the formation of the gym and amateur club.
All our coaches, trustees and other volunteers are unpaid and are giving up their time to work for the benefit of their community, their passion for boxing and belief in the sport of boxing as a force for good.
We rely on the help of donations, sponsors, and our modest gym fees to keep the doors open and the lights on.
Like all charities we are of course always short of money, so we are looking for business and individuals who may be able to provide grants, sponsorship, or other financial support to the club.
If this is could be you, please contact the charities CEO Seb Scilly to discuss further.
