It’s getting harder and harder for young people to get their first jobs.

This week our Box Careers programme spent time at , getting a behind-the-scenes look at working in hospitality.

We’ve been working with Boston Tea Party for years now, and a number of our young people have gone on to get their first jobs there.

This visit took us to the Park Street branch in Bristol, hosted by the Boston Foundation.

Massive thanks to the team for having us and their continued support of young people.

£18,215 raised by our amazing supporters to help more young people across Bristol and the UK access our programmes 🥊

Last night, organisations from across Bristol came together for a brilliant quiz night, with good competition, plenty of laughs and bidding on some rare donated items.

In 2025, we reached 10,609 young people. This support helps us equip more young people to cope with the difficulties they face and gives them a fighting chance of realising their full potential.

Huge thank you to everyone who came along and supported the night. Scroll through to see the winners!

“What’s the catch?”
It’s what every boxing club asks us.

We tell them we’ll train them to deliver a boxing programme built over 20+ years
that helps young people deal with what’s going on in their lives.

And we back them to do it properly, working with them to develop their business model, become more sustainable and track the data that shows it works.

Together with we’re growing a network of clubs reaching thousands more young people.

The goal is bigger than us: to prove boxing delivers real change for young people and their communities.

7 clubs have spent the past 2 days training with us
They now join 68 boxing clubs and 150 partner organisations already delivering Boxing for Good across the UK and beyond.

Watch what it’s all about here.

What’s it actually like growing up in Bristol for some young people right now?

Empire’s Youth Advisory Board are hosting a screening of Postcodes a documentary led by young people,
exploring how postcode identity shapes where you go,
who you mix with, and what you feel safe doing.

After the film, there’s a live Q&A. Questions from a youth perspective with Bristol city leaders responding.

If you’ve got something to say this is where you say it.

Comment “POSTCODES” and we’ll DM you the booking link or look out for our stories.
