Aberfeldy Boxing Club is a community led boxing club, providing a safe environment for children, young people and wider community to come together and get fit, whilst addressing gang activity and knife crime in Aberfeldy, Poplar. We’ve received many positive responses to the opening of our club on 29 Aberfeldy Street last summer. In a short amount of time, we had 200+ members sign up for our activities and we expect demand to grow over the school holidays.
We also provide meaningful volunteering and training opportunities for young people to develop their skills. Currently we have 8 volunteers from the local area who we are training to become volunteer boxing coaches and 2 are awaiting confirmation to be accepted on the Government’s Kickstart Programme.
