Story

I’m “The Cubby Destroyer” and I'm competing in Rumble in the Kitchen on 20th September at the Royal Automobile Club. I will be fighting a celebrity from the Hospitality sector and I need your support. I will compete in a fight consisting of three two-minute rounds. I haven’t fought before so it’s a big undertaking. I’ve signed up to 4 months of training with former-UK champion, Clinton McKenzie so hopefully I’ll win!

I’m competing in the Rumble to raise money for Galvin’s Chance. This is an into-work programme run by Hilton in the Community Foundation to help disadvantaged young people to find employment and turn their lives around. The purpose of Galvin’s Chance is to provide a supported into-work programme and apprenticeship for young people aged 18-24 who may be ex-offenders or who are deemed disadvantaged, including those ‘at risk’ of gang culture.  15 young people can be supported in the programme each year. In the current group, 14 young people have found employment and five of these are soon due to complete their apprenticeship studies at WKC and Southgate College.  If you support me in the Rumble they will be able to expand Galvin’s Chance to help more young people.
