Rounds for Pounds
The event on November 25 will see the club’s children step up for the charity
Impact Kickboxing and Martial Arts club is taking on a challenge of completing 101 rounds of sparring to raise money for Sight Matters.
The event on November 25 will see the club’s children step up for the charity which support people with visual impairments.
With a target of £1,000, the club is encouraging all the kids to ask friends and families to support them and it is also seeking others to donate.
Impact Kickboxing said Sight Matters is ‘great cause’ and one that means so much to senior instructor Dave Pearson.
It said: ‘A small, friendly team of staff, along with more than 200 volunteers, provide a comprehensive range of services and support.
‘From their purpose-built headquarters – Corrin Court, Heywood Avenue, Onchan – Sight Matters offers a wide range of services, including: a talking book library, a recording studio producing a weekly audio news service, computer training, specialist equipment room and resource centre and weekly social groups.
They also provide home and hospital visits and additional social events off premises throughout the year. Apart from a subsidised charge for lunches, services are all provided free.
‘While working closely with all organisations within the Isle of Man sight impairment service, Sight Matters is financially independent, relying upon fundraising, donations, contracts and legacies for its services.’
