UNdamaged Goods Ruari Stainfield-Bruce

In our final episode of UNdamaged Goods at The Hackney Boxing Academy I am joined by two key members of staff, Head of Boxing & Behaviour, Constantine/Jermaine, and Pod Leader Kareem. We look at how their lives have shaped them and how they found their love of boxing, the journeys they have gone on which resulted in them choosing the line of work they are now in plus how The Boxing Academy is different to other education settings.

Hi, I’m Ruari. This is UNdamaged Goods, a podcast created to give inner-city young people, especially those out of mainstream school, a platform to voice their opinions and tell their stories. For this first series, I'm getting to know the students at The Hackney Boxing Academy.
In this episode, I am joined by three special guests, two ex-Hackney Boxing Academy students, Kevin and Jonathan, plus actor, rapper, producer, writer, director and painter, Ed Skrein. We look at what happens next - how school affected them, the positive impact boxing and The Hackney Boxing Academy has had on them and how their lives changed for the better.
