KO Combat Academy has launched a community fundraising drive for Paul’s House in Central London, Young Lives vs Cancer’s Home from Home for families of children and young people facing cancer. Throughout November, the Bethnal Green gym will open its doors every Monday to Friday from 7am to 9pm and Saturday & Sunday from 9am to 3pm to collect donations of everyday essentials – from toiletries and cleaning products to coffee and washing powder – for families staying at Paul’s House.

Young Lives vs Cancer is the leading UK charity for children and young people with cancer (0-25) and their families. The charity supports families through Specialist Social Workers and Homes from Home near hospitals. Paul’s House provides free accommodation for families whose children and young people are receiving cancer treatment at hospitals in London, helping families avoid the extra financial burdens of travel, accommodation and food costs.
