Lesley has been building women’s confidence to help them move forward with their lives and now wants to bring that support and knowledge to every woman through the power of boxing.

Empowerment is at the core of our organisation. We believe in the inherent strength and resilience of every woman and her ability to use that as a resource to Fight Forward.We provide safe and supportive spaces for survivors, to learn tools to improve their mental health and wellbeing to support their journey of healing.We recognise that community is a vital part of healing from abuse. We are driven by a deep commitment to create a network of support amongst survivors.
