Halifax Boxing, Sport & Fitness Club is a community-based club which supports people from all backgrounds. We run on a non-for-profit basis as a social enterprise, ploughing any surplus back into the work of the club. Our aim is to include people from all parts of the community in activities at the gym to help promote health, well-being, and community engagement. We offer a range of services from community groups, classes & one-to-one support that include: social inclusion classes for people recovering from alcohol or substance misuse issues, youth crime prevention, one-to-one mentoring and support, young adults training and learning, school holiday activity club sessions for people with physical disabilities, community events, volunteering and social action sessions for schools and colleges, support for people in residential care, and health and well-being rehabilitation work.
The gym is praised for its welcoming environment, top-notch facilities, and affordability.
