Boxing Dinner in Haringey

Tonight was the Haringey Police Community Amateur Boxing Dinner. The club does phenomenal work taking young people off the street and out of trouble and giving them a real avenue to achieve. Shock horror – two of the bouts were girls! And they really, really fight. Tonight’s matches were between Haringey Select and Norway Select. The evening – which comprises a black tie dinner, auction of special items like Mohammed Ali’s boxing shorts signed by Ali and of course the boxing itself – raises a lot of money to support the club.

A great event, started by Haringey’s local police commander (the one before the one before this one – Stephen James). Tonight’s host was the current Commander, Simon O’Brien – and hats off to Haringey Police for the good work they do.
