Story
I'm taking on Thriller in the Villa 2026 to raise money for The Josh Hanson Trust, a charity that provides vital support to victims of violent crime and their families. Any support is hugely appreciated.
Thriller in the Villa is a fun event for the Island's community, providing a platform for local fundraising. The event sees local volunteers embrace the challenge of stepping into the boxing ring and raising funds for their chosen charity in the Villa Marina's Royal Hall in Douglas, Isle of Man.
I chose to take part in Thriller in the Villa 2026 because I've watched friends take part in previous years and seen how much they enjoyed the experience. I've always enjoyed watching boxing and often wondered whether I'd be any good at it, so this felt like the perfect opportunity to find out while raising money for charity.
I'm looking forward to pushing myself physically and mentally, stepping well outside my comfort zone, and taking on a challenge that will test me in ways I've never experienced before.
I have chosen to support The Josh Hanson Trust because Josh was a family friend who was tragically murdered. The charity was established in his memory and provides support to victims of violent crime and their families. Supporting a cause with such a personal connection means a great deal to me, and I want to help ensure the charity can continue supporting those who need it most.
The months of training will be demanding, but every session and every round in the ring will be worthwhile if it helps raise awareness and vital funds for The Josh Hanson Trust.
Every donation, no matter how big or small, will help The Josh Hanson Trust continue supporting victims of violent crime and their families across the Isle of Man.
Thank you for supporting me, supporting The Josh Hanson Trust, and helping me take on the challenge of Thriller in the Villa 2026.
