Harry Bertam is one of the junior coaches at the club and volunteers to help between 30-40 children who come to the gym most weeks.
“It’s nice to get young people into the sport,” he said.
“The thrill for me is seeing the kids get in the ring for the first time for a fight and they’re all happy to put the Leonis shirt on.
“We have parents come quite regularly who say their kids are struggling outside of school, but after a few weeks with us they say it’s really helped their children.”
The club recently registered as a charity to help fund new equipment costs to continue its work.
