Welcome to UNdamaged goods, a podcast created to give inner-city young people, especially those out of mainstream school a platform to voice their opinions and tell their stories. I'm Ruari and I worked in social services for several years and I am now a brand consultant working within the film, music and arts industries, it’s time to bring my two worlds together.
Through the voice of the young people & my special guests, I hope to support in educating the general public and put right the systemic wrong that’s been created over the years around certain communities and the youth of today. For this first series, I’m in London at the Hackney Boxing Academy.

5 - Staff | “The youth of today are the leaders of tomorrow” Nelson Mandela
In our final episode of UNdamaged Goods at The Hackney Boxing Academy I am joined by two key members of staff, Head of Boxing & Behaviour, Constantine/Jermaine, and Pod Leader Kareem. We look at how their lives have shaped them and how they found their love of boxing, the journeys they have gone on which resulted in them choosing the line of work they are now in plus how The Boxing Academy is different to other education settings.
