England Boxing are recognising the contribution of volunteers make this Volunteers’ Week 2022.

Volunteers’ Week 2022 is a time to say thanks, and volunteers ensure boxing clubs continue play a pivotal role in people’s lives.

During an exceptionally difficult couple of years, people around the UK have taken the time to volunteer and make a huge difference to their communities – as they do every year.

This 38th annual Volunteers’ Week is a time come together and thank all volunteers for their invaluable contribution.

Taking place during the #MonthofCommunity, running throughout June, #MonthOfCommunity brings together organisations with a range of events in order to encourage everyone to join in with activities happening in their local communities.

Each day follows a central theme to guide your plans for Volunteers’ Week 2022.

England Boxing would like to recognise all of those who have continued delivering vital work as volunteers over the past 12 months, but also all those who usually volunteer but have not been able to because of the pandemic.

Volunteers are always active in the heart of every UK community. They are behind many of the services we all rely on. Some are now volunteering online from home, others in person with a local charity or organisation. Their crucial contribution has not stopped, despite the uncertain times we find ourselves in, and will continue as an important part of the nation’s recovery.

The contribution of volunteers is often unseen and unrecognised by many, visible only through the incredible impact of their volunteering. However, the coronavirus pandemic has rightly raised the profile of volunteering and more people than ever are aware of the immense contribution being made every single day by Britain’s volunteers.

England Boxing would like to join in this week by thanking our key volunteers, from the coaches, officials, welfare officers, and Linda who makes the tea at the club.

We would like to thank England Boxing’s amazing volunteers, by posting a picture and a few words why they are so amazing.

Without them our beloved sport wouldn’t be as fantastic as it is.
