Empowering Through Sport

At The Christian Hobbs Charity, we believe in the power of sport to change lives. We focus on the provision of land, buildings, grants and equipment to  broaden participation in the sport of amateur boxing, and on other charitable initiatives.

The reason why

The Christian Hobbs Charity is a new Charity set up in 2025 devoted to supporting amateur sports, with a passionate focus on boxing.


 The Charity was founded in memory of Christian Hobbs, a keen amateur boxer, who died aged 17.
