BOXING legend Chris Eubank paid a visit to Solihull Academy to share his story.

The former boxing champion, known for his success in the ring and his powerful life philosophy, shared personal stories of resilience and determination, encouraging pupils to face challenges with confidence.

Matt G, careers, community and cultural capital officer at Solihull Academy, said: “It was great to have Chris here today. His story really resonated with our pupils and offered them a new perspective on overcoming difficult circumstances.”

The visit was organised by Edge Creative through its partnership links with Touchwood Shopping Centre, and marked the launch of Trust Huddle, a new community fundraising platform aimed at empowering young people to support charitable causes.

The event was part of Edge Creative’s ongoing efforts to engage with local communities and inspire the next generation.




With the launch of Trust Huddle, students are now equipped with a platform to take action, make a difference, and foster a spirit of giving.

Lucy Burnett, marketing manager at Touchwood Solihull said: “The students that participated in this visit were so inspired by Chris, and we can’t wait to see how they take these learnings into the community to create change themselves.”
