Since 2019, the BBA has worked with hundreds of teenagers and adults from the “poorest postcodes” in the area and engaged with the police to tackle knife crime in the area.<\/p>\n
Worth said the club provided teenagers with something to do and helped them find purpose and discipline. <\/p>\n
He said the community the academy created was one of his “proudest achievements” and hoped the council would support the club to continue to make a difference.<\/p>\n
Evans said Evolve was the landlord responsible for the condition and maintenance of the buildings, until a partial acquisition was completed.<\/p>\n
She said: “We are aware that a suitable property has been identified for the relocation of Billingham Boxing Academy, this property is not council-owned. <\/p>\n
“As the businesses are Sheet Anchor Evolve’s tenant, until funding agreements between the council and Sheet Anchor Evolve are signed, the council cannot formalise any funding to enable relocation to take place.”<\/p>\n
