Club Charity of the Year
About us
GRIT is a local charity based in Hitchin.
In Hertfordshire and across the UK as a whole, our young people are struggling with their mental health. Traditional treatment pathways such as CAMHS are massively overstretched meaning that early intervention is not always possible which can lead to further difficulties in adolescence and adulthood. This is where GRIT comes in. Their Four Corners Method utilises the power of non-contact boxing, boxing metaphors and health and wellbeing coaching concepts to enable young people to navigate everyday challenges and build a foundation of health while understanding the importance of physical, emotional and mental wellbeing.
In 2022 and 2023 GRIT supported over 400 young people and over the course of the next 5 years they expect their service to reach approximately 2,184 young people locally. In addition to referrals from GPs, young people can also be referred from a selection of local schools in Hitchin andLetchworth as well as through self referrals via their website.
