Broad Street Amateur Boxing Club has been essential in preventing youth crime by providing free training—it's the only club doing so in London. Despite the council's proposals for a new lease, they fail to recognize the club's community value, stressing the need for financial sustainability to continue their mission.
Ray McCallum, the head coach, emphasized the importance of the club by stating that many young people come from low-income homes. He highlighted, "I just don't think the council has taken into account what we've been doing and the service that we provide, it's always been free." This demonstrates the vital role of grassroots organizations in challenging environments.
