Bushey Boxing Club has given generations of local young people far more than somewhere to train. Last weekend, its community gave something back. 🥊 A huge congratulations to my friend Liam Shinkwin and everyone at Bushey Boxing Club who completed an extraordinary 24-Hour Punchbag Marathon to raise vital funds for the club! 💥 From midday last Saturday to midday Sunday, boxers, coaches, families, friends, and supporters took turns keeping that punchbag moving for a full 24 hours. It was an amazing display of stamina, determination, teamwork, and community spirit – and I’m so pleased I got to take part. 🥊 Liam began his own boxing journey at Bushey Boxing Club before going on to represent England, win silver at the Junior Olympics, and become Southern Area lightweight champion. Now, he’s helping make sure the next generation of young boxers has the same opportunity to thrive. Bushey Boxing Club has been part of our community since the 1980s, giving generations of young people somewhere to train, build confidence, learn discipline, and feel part of a team. But its boxing ring is now around 26 years old, and the club urgently needs new punchbags and other essential training equipment. The marathon may be over, but the fundraising definitely isn’t: 💥 First goal: £10,000 for a new ring, punchbags, and essential training equipment. 💥 Second goal: £20,000 to buy a minibus so more young boxers can travel to competitions and opportunities around the country. Every donation helps – but if you can’t donate, please share this video and the fundraiser as widely as you can. 👉 To donate, tap the link below: https://t.co/8DHXijK2BB 👉Follow Liam and Bushey Boxing Club on Instagram: https://t.co/Tw2NqGKfBA Massive respect to Liam and every single person who stepped up over those 24 hours.
