I'm not too sure what sort of response i'm aiming for other than possible sponsorship/donations but I thought its worth spreading the word.
Essentially i'm taking part in a charity boxing night on December 17th in Nantwich near Crewe. There will be around 10-20 fights on the night consisting of 3 2min rounds with amateur fighters of all classes and abilities. It is a well organised night with proper rules, a ring, referee, medics, training before hand and the fights will be posted on youtube. Details on the training, videos of previous fights, etc can be found here http://www.funkinfitness.com/ or here http://www.youtube.com/user/funkinfitness
The night is always in aid of a charity and this fight night is in aid of a young lad called Nathan who has cerebral palsy and needs a new wheelchair as he currently only has the one the NHS gave him. His story was covered by a local paper last month http://www.crewechronicle.co.uk/crewe-news/local-crewe-news/2011/09/21/crewe-boy-appeals-for-help-in-living-a-more-independent-life-96135-29456711/
The money raised is going to this charity Newlife who will then in turn give them the money for a new wheelchair which works out about £3400 and any money raised over that amount goes to another local child within the charity.
As with any money raising thing every little helps so if anyone feels they would like to donate any money then i will sort out the official way to do it on tuesday, but also if anyone would like to come and watch on the night tickets are £15.
Like i said at the start i'm not too sure what response i'll get for this but even if one person donates then it helps!

My mate did this last month and won. Good night and cheap beer - £2 a pint if I remember.
