2026 sees the return of the annual Charity Boxing Nights gala event.

What started in 2015, following the tragic loss of my baby niece Soffia Rose, has grown into something far bigger than I could ever have imagined.

In those previous 10 years we’ve raised hundreds of thousands of pounds for the Newborn Intensive Care Unit (NICU) at Saint Mary’s Hospital, a place that does unbelievable work, and where both the staff and most importantly the tiny babies are fighting every single minute of every single day.

Their fight is a fight for life.

Our aim is to support everybody at NICU in that fight, and none of this would have been possible without the people who’ve stood shoulder to shoulder with us along the way. The fighters who’ve put themselves through the toughest of challenges by climbing into the ring. The sponsors who’ve backed us year after year. The supporters who’ve donated, fundraised, and attended the event. You’ve made such a huge difference, and your support has turned Charity Boxing Nights into a legacy.

But we’re not done.

In fact, as always, we are just getting started and each year we aim to return bigger, better and stronger.

2026 is our 11th year, and with your continued support we can push this cause further than ever before.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for your continued support each and every year.

Let’s make this year better than ever, and an event and a fundraiser to remember.

On behalf of everybody at Charity Boxing Nights.
