Charity Boxing Match - October 2023

 Harvey is participating in a White Collar Charity Boxing Bout.

 This will consist of 10 weeks free training provided by Left Jab Boxing Club, Huddersfield.

The event will take place on 28th October 2023 at Smile Bar & Venue, Huddersfield.

Harvey & Left Jab Boxing are hoping to raise a minimum of £10,000, along with support from local companies.

Any support you can offer to keep him going would be gratefully received.

Harvey's  chosen charity is the Multiple Sclerosis Society in memory of his Nana, Barbara Wooler.

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a condition that affects your brain and spinal cord. In MS, the coating that protects your nerves (myelin) is damaged. This causes a range of symptoms like blurred vision and problems with how we move think and feel.

Once diagnosed, MS stays with you for life, but treatments and specialists can help you to manage the condition and its symptoms.

More than 130,000 people in the UK have MS. In the UK people are most likely to find out they have MS in their thirties, forties and fifties. But the first signs of MS often start years earlier. Many people notice their first symptoms years before they get their diagnosis.

MS affects almost three times as many women as men. People from many different ethnic backgrounds can get MS.

As a company in 2022, we raised an incredible £3017.50 for the Yorkshire's Brain Tumour Charity!

This August saw GW Bodyshop fundraise for another charity close to our hearts, MS Society (Multiple Sclerosis Society). 

Our MD Shane set his eyes on another challenge, Sea to Sea with Bike the UK for MS. 

The challenge took place over three days between 19.08.2023 & 21.08.2023. 

 Shane cycled 150 miles with 11,969 feet of elevation change,  from Whitehaven to Newcastle, over the course of 3 days. 

 The Bike the UK for MS team are inspired individuals of all backgrounds, ages and cycling abilities, and we want you to join us. The riders come together for a common purpose: to raise funds and awareness for MS research, volunteer their time, and make a positive impact on the lives of people living with MS. 

On behalf of Shane & GW Bodyshop, thank you for the donations as we managed to raise £215.00
