As general secretary of the Pedro Youth club in east London, Patrick Sands is tasked with providing suitable facilities for the young people in Hackney that attend the club. From art, music, dance and amateur boxing, the club hosts an array of activities.

With the London 2012 Games just over two years away Pat's hoping that the club's boxing history will encourage an Olympic boxing team to use the club as a training facility during the Games.
