Brewers Morecambe Supports Leo’s Gym With Paint Donation

One of our regular decorators approached us about donating the paint for the gym as they knew Leo's family. As a family run business, Brewers hold family values at the heart of everything we do. Leo's story touched us and many of our customers, so we felt it was important for us to support Lee with his ambitious vision and to be able to give back to the local community who support us.

After having a difficult time at school with bullying, Leo discovered a passion for boxing, and an ambition of going professional. 

Leo had numerous fights, winning the Manchester Box Cup and the under 60kg Northwest Title.

Earlier this year, Leo tragically passed away after a road collision. 

The local community came together, raising £10,000 in light of the immense loss. 

Leo’s dad, Lee, wanted to use the money to make a difference and let his son’s memory live on. With the support of Leo’s boxing coach and referee, Steve Tallo-Brady, they rented a space to turn into a gym.

The mission; to create a place where people of all ages and backgrounds can come to see if boxing can help with life’s challenges, as it did for Leo.
