The Issue

Petition: Save Our Community Boxing Gym from Closure


We are The Community Boxing Gym, a vital non-profit in Leicester's West End. We are about to be made homeless, and we need your help to find a new home.

Our affordable gym (£2 per session) is a lifeline in one of England's most diverse communities. Our current building is being sold to become flats, and our lease has ended.

Why We Matter:

A Safe Space: We keep young people active, confident, and off the streets, helping to reduce gang violence and knife crime.


Unique Location: We are the only boxing gym in the Westcotes/West End area. If we close, this service disappears.


More Than Boxing: We build mental health, community, and unity. Our members speak over 25 languages - We live our motto

#UnityInTheCommunity.


What We Need Now: We are actively searching for a new building in the same area to continue our work. To secure a new home, we must prove to the council and local leaders that our community supports us.

How You Can Help:
Please sign this petition to show Leicester City Council and our local MPs that our gym must be saved. We need them to help us find and secure a new permanent home.

Every signature brings us closer to keeping our doors open. Sign, share, and help us protect this vital community hub.

Thank you for your support.
