Support Our Boxing Program for Young People!
A group of professional boxers and fitness enthusiasts have come together to raise funds by doing the National 3 Peaks Challenge. The National 3 Peaks Challenge involves climbing Ben Nevis (1,344m), Scafell Pike (978m) and Snowdon (Yr Wyddfa) (1,085m) in 24 hrs!
The fund will help continue the successful pilot program jointly run by WDP Boxing Gym and Action for Children. This initiative has already made a significant impact and with your support, we aim to extend its benefits to more young people in our community.
