Year Ending: 31 August 2024

Company activities and impact

During the financial year, the company has made a significant positive impact on the local community through its boxing-for-fitness programmes. We provided accessible and inclusive sessions catering to a wide range of ages and abilities, helping individuals build confidence, improve physical fitness, and develop discipline and focus. Our sessions also taught participants valuable self-defence skills and encouraged social interaction, offering a supportive space for people to make new friends. To ensure our services were available to all, we hosted sessions in a central town location, easily reachable on foot, by car, or public transport. Our class offerings included junior (8–15 years), adult (16+), ladies-only, sensory-friendly, and family sessions, promoting inclusivity and meeting diverse community needs. We actively engaged with the community outside of our regular sessions by taking part in local events such as the Christmas Lights Switch-On, where we offered interactive boxing games and pad-work experiences. Additionally, we launched a weekly outreach project in a nearby, often-isolated village with limited transport links. This initiative allowed us to reach more young people and children with special educational needs (SEN) who otherwise wouldn’t have access to such opportunities. By the end of the financial year, we were supporting an average of 25 junior students, 8 adults, and 3 families each week. As the only boxing-based fitness provider in the area, we ensured our services remained affordable, offering lower prices than nearby alternatives and providing discounts where possible. These efforts have helped foster community wellbeing, inclusion, and engagement through sport.

Consultation with stakeholders

During the year, we consulted with a range of stakeholders to help shape and improve our services. We engaged the local community through social media, which provided useful feedback on our sessions and helped guide our decisions. We also consulted with the local council to discuss the use of the council chambers as a venue, including identifying the most suitable times for hiring the space. We also looked around at other community groups within our area and noted the days and times that their sessions operate - we tried to incorporate our sessions where we could find gaps in the community. Internal consultation took place between directors, where we brainstormed ideas about session formats and discussed appropriate age caps for participants to ensure inclusivity and safety. Additionally, we consulted directly with residents of a local village where we have since launched weekly outreach sessions. Feedback from this group has been particularly valuable in tailoring our offering to meet their specific needs.
