Wellington Boxing Club also runs specialist boxing based fitness sessions for people living with Parkinson’s disease, highlighting its inclusive approach and commitment to supporting people from all walks of life across Wellington, Telford and the surrounding areas.

Head Trainer , Mo of Wellington Boxing Club said: “We are pleased to confirm our sponsorship partnership with KMC Legal & Finance. Their support will help us invest in vital equipment, including gloves, shorts and kit for our young boxers. This makes a real difference to what we can offer and allows us to continue supporting our members and the wider community.

Katie McCreath, Director of KMC Legal & Finance, added: “Wellington Boxing Club is an outstanding local gym that does far more than train boxers. The quality of coaching is exceptional, and the fact that the club has recently trained a world champion speaks volumes. What really stands out, however, is the positive impact on confidence, mental health and life skills, particularly for young people. We are proud to support a club that gives so much back to the Wellington and Telford community.”

The partnership reflects a shared commitment to community, opportunity and positive outcomes, both inside and outside the ring.
