Our CIC, ‘Charnwood Boxing Academy’, aims to provide a safe and inclusive environment for young people to actively engage with boxing. An England Boxing affiliated club with England Boxing qualified coaches, we aim to support young people in the South East London area, with a particular focus on Croydon and neighbouring communities.

We are an amateur boxing club with two London champions, but we aim to help both those who wish to compete in boxing and those who do not, as our primary goal is to provide an affordable and safe space for young people in the area who need it the most. We believe in the enormous benefits of boxing training for young people, to give them a sense of purpose and focus and to learn the value of discipline and commitment to a goal. Boxing isn’t just about competition and the obvious rewards that brings, it is also about Mental health and wellbeing. Being part of a club also helps to foster a sense of community and family that further benefits young people and the wider community.

Our Mission is to create a safe inclusive environment where qualified coaches will provide coaching and support that not only focuses on physical health but also prioritizes emotional and social well-being and promotes community.
