BoxUpCrime is a social youth organisation operating out of the London borough of Barking and Dagenham. We work with young people who are at risk of having their lives ruined by crime and motivate them to rebuild and recapture their dreams and aspirations. We believe that every young person is entitled to a bright future, inspired by their hopes and dreams, regardless of their background. We deliver our tailored sessions to schools, pupil referral units and community centres across London. In our weekly sessions, we offer a foundation of discipline through boxing training, educational programmes and mentoring. We provide young people with job opportunities and apprenticeships as a stepping stone to their future.
Vision
An international youth-led community, rebuilding misguided dreams by harnessing the talents of young people.
Mission
Providing the opportunity and resources to help all young people discover a true sense of identity as well as guiding them to develop self-motivation strategies. Once equipped with this, it will allow them to go on to self-fulfilment, making a successful life accessible, and ultimately decreasing and preventing the chance of them becoming a victim of senseless murders and going to prison.
