Crewe Youth Club
Trustees report on the Accounts for the year ended 31st July 2025
The Trustees have made significant progress in developing the boxing gym at Mirion Street. This year the construction project began in earnest. On August 27th we broke ground at Mirion Street and shared the event with representatives from Crewe Towns Board, Cheshire Constabulary, Cheshire East Council and other supporters. The event was led by junior boxers from SCABC. We were joined by Radio Stoke who reported on our celebrations.
The construction moved on rapidly from that date. We found that the design and project team worked well and enabled the Trustees to maintain control over design and cost aspects of the project. Our thanks to all our project team for their support.
To ensure that the gym was designed to fit with the way SCABC operate, a number of workshops were organised to develop the internal layout of the gym. These workshops included young boxers from the club.
Our original target for completion was 31st March 2025, however post-Christmas 2024 it became clear that the timescale was slipping. The Trustees and project team worked through options to minimise the impact to timing whilst also protecting the fixed budget.
On June 27th we held our opening event for the new gym. We were joined by Connor Naismith MP, Minister Stephanie Peacock MP, who officially opened the new building, and many other supporters. The event was a great success and to share the good news with more people SCABC held an open day on the 28th June to show the building to other interested members of the community.
As well as the construction project our Trustees worked with SCABC and TR Creative on a marketing strategy and enhanced website for the new gym. We also developed and signed off on the lease between CYC and SCABC that ensures the appropriate use and maintenance of the building.
The Charity has no debt. We are looking forward to completing the external works and snagging issues next year and continue to work with our partners, South Cheshire Amateur Boxing Club, to ensure the opportunity the new building presents will, be maximised.
