Talking about his brother being his inspiration, Bobby said: “I believed in there being a place for everyone to belong.<\/p>\n
“His [Shay’s] past life experiences with disabilities and even my past experiences growing up with anxiety, is why I started this business.”<\/p>\n
He explained how growing up, Shay was not always allowed into clubs or groups because of his disabilities.<\/p>\n
“I don’t think that is fair on anyone,” Bobby said. “Which is why I’m trying to create a place like this, where children like Shay or anyone with a disability, low confidence, anxiety, whatever it might be, can feel comfortable coming to a club.”<\/p>\n
It’s not just about the physical benefits either. <\/p>\n
The children were also socialising, making friends and having a good time, he added.<\/p>\n
Shay added: “I’ve got my mates, I do boxing. There should be more clubs like this.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Talking about his brother being his inspiration, Bobby said: “I believed in there being a place for everyone…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":742135,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[41],"tags":[2560,101,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-742134","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-boxing","tag-boxing","tag-sports","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/742134","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=742134"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/742134\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/742135"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=742134"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=742134"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=742134"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
