Boxing initiative fights obesity
A BOXING training initiative in London, launched to help tackle childhood obesity, has received a visit from health secretary Alan Johnson.  
Fight Fit Training and Development aims to help young people with behavioural problems turn their lives around with a combination of sport and life coaching.  
The scheme was set up by FIA member Martin McKenzie and is backed by Derek 'Sweet D' Williams, former European and Commonwealth Heavyweight Champion.

Charity campaign aims to deliver healthy access
YOUNG people with little access to health and fitness facilities are being supported by a new campaign from the charity 4Children. 
The Make Space for Health scheme will deliver a programme of teenage health advice and activities through youth centres and after school clubs.  
It will also aim to bring together all the organisations responsible for children's health in a local area to make sure all community activities are coordinated.
