THU 16 JUNE

Inspired by his experiences with a township boxing club in South Africa, actor Idris Elba has launched his own boxing club in the UK to help eight young men and women tackle their mental health issues and living with poverty and crime. It’s not about punching back, it’s about developing discipline, dedication, ambition and resilience as they train to be fight-ready over five months. “Boxing requires you to switch off all the noise and focus on the moment, a skill that I believe all people need,” says Idris.
