Fighting Spirit CIC was founded by Gwen Richards following the discovery that non-contact boxing fitness training had a powerful impact on her mental health, subsequently making a full recovery from depression. Realising the benefits, Gwen started working within the community running sessions for all age groups, to improve their physical and mental wellbeing.
