There's a item on BBC Spotlight this evening about the work that the Community Trust do with young people.

No idea what it says as i've just seen it previewed at he beginning of the programme.

the piece is about 15.24 into the programme , it's using boxing as a way to help young people who might otherwsie make some poor choices , make some good choices about their lives and by being alongside the CCT coaches they get some positive role models .

Strange as it may seem I managed to work that out when I watched it! But actually not just boxing but, as Pete says, using boxing as a way of controlling agression.
Another real positive from ECFC Community Trust, well done Jamie and your whole team.

It actually a Bristol charity that runs this (was on Points West last night too), City are just the first outside agency to take this up. A very good idea though!

I saw it at lunchtime and only saw your post, which was timed before it aired in the evening, after the item would have been shown. There was no way I could have known that you or anyone else had seen it so I was trying to be helpful. Thanks for the sarcasm though.
