Story

.

So on impulse I have decided to do a wee bit for charity and take part in a white collar boxing event. Some lucky person gets the opportunity to punch me about the place!

I am looking to raise £500 for the Alzheimers charity as it’s close to my heart having watched my gran suffer for years from this. Watching someone you love forget their lives and everyone in it with nothing you can do is horrible.

Any donations no matter how small will be greatly appreciated…… so dig deep 👊🏻
