Weapons down! - Weights Up

Donation protected
Hello everyone I’ll make this straight to the point. I am raising money to help towards raising awareness of the knife and gun crime epidemic in England which is destroying the streets of London and to help fund a funeral for a young man named Moses  Mayele’s family who has sadly passed away due to this topic.

On the 6th of October I was at an event hosted by some friends of mine who own a clothing company called Valour. This event was the launch of Valour and it’s aim was to help  empower young black men and women on helping them find a different path in life through fitness and keep them away from Gangs and a life of crime. 

Fast forward to 12th of October, Jay one of the owners of Valour and Moses who were close friends were out on a night out socialising and were both attacked by someone  with a knife who stabbed both of them multiple times putting Jay in hospital needing life saving surgery and to the great sadness Moses lost his life due to this disgusting act of violence. 

Jay is now now in hospital in intensive care slowly recovering but now Moses parents are left without a son, Moses’s beautiful daughter is left without a dad and a whole community have suffered a great loss. 

I myself (Courtney Jerome) will be with withdrawing the funds to give to jay. 

I want to raise money to help with Moses family for his funeral and his daughter for her future care but also to help prevent another act of this nature from happening again by helping young men and women who may not be involved with street crimes but know people that Are and I urge them to come to our event which we will be holding hosted by Valour on the 10th of November details to follow it will be £10 to come and all proceeds will be going to charity, but it’s also to help show that there is another path in life and how effective fitness can be mentally and physically and how it’s helped my life and how I can hope to advise the younger generation and give them the tools to a better and happier life. 

It will be school sports day themed so there will be events such as , 100 & 200 metre sprints , long jump , High Jump etc. We will provide food and drink and there will also be a raffle where I will give away a year of online coaching. 

Any donation is a good donation so please donate what you can and help spread this Message.
