Fantastic to visit the thriving Freedom Boxing Club at Lindholme Community Gym this weekend!
I’ve heard that even Roman Fury, brother of boxing champs Tyson and Tommy Fury, has even been to this great venue in the past!

Earlier this week, I visited Tindale Bank Road in Westwoodside after hearing from constituents about its poor condition.
