Check out @poshboydoc on Instagram for some teaser trailer footage of a film that they are creating. It follows both Carney’s Community and Fitzroy Lodge boxer’s journey in the sport.  Like the whole film industry, we thought our own production work had to stop. This included a new documentary that we have been filming.  Posh Boy captures the lives of young, aspiring boxers from London’s inner- city boroughs. It is a portrait of struggle and aspiration against the odds. But, this pandemic poses a serious challenge to the community at the heart of Posh Boy.  In these unusual circumstances, and to help this community under threat, we have decided to share some of our existing film material with you. We will then go on to capture this story through the testing weeks ahead, using whatever means our technologies make safely possible.

Join us on Sunday 26th April for our first ever online BoYo event. Everyone is welcome – it is just £10.00 per household/ give what you can! To find out more please contact @carneyscoaches or @livekarmayoga direct.

So now, despite a huge drop in donations and other income, we’re doing our best to adapt, and continue our vital work. WE’RE STILL HERE FOR YOUNG PEOPLE We’re responding to this crisis by redesigning our services to continue doing what we do, even while our centre […]
