Box in Mind Bitesize – May and June dates now available
April 23, 2021 | by Matt Halfpenny
Dates for England Boxing’s free Box In Mind Bitesize online courses have now been released for May and June.
So far, more than 475 England Boxing members have taken part in the sessions – put together with help from mental health charity Mind – which began in June 2020 following the onset of the Coronavirus Pandemic.
Mental health problems affects one in four people, meaning everyone is likely to know someone who is having problems, even if it is not obvious, like a physical injury.
Those who attend will be given guidance on how to spot the signs that someone is struggling with their mental health, and explain what they can then do to get that person the right help.
If you are interested in taking part in an online Box In Mind Bitesize session, they are being hosted by two different Box In Mind tutors during May.
To book a place on one of these sessions, please go to the Box In Mind course page on the England Boxing website, by clicking here.
