Stockport and Brinnington ABC
Who we are
Description
We are an affiliated boxing gym running in a priority 1 area of high deprivation in Stockport. We provide fun and structured boxing sessions on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays for adults and juniors irrespective of ability, gender or ethnicity to assist them in reducing their risk of acute and chronic health conditions and improving mental health and wellbeing. By promoting individual self-discipline and providing positive role models for the local community, we have found boxing can also assist in reducing anti-social behaviour in the community and by providing an outlet to develop within a sporting environment, our members also have the opportunity to represent the club at local events as well as the wider community as a whole, and even in national competitions.
