Fighters were outside the station in boxing gloves

It may be 32C outside Sheffield station today.

But that has not stopped people boxing in a makeshift ring on the concourse near the taxi rank.

The ring has been put up by England Boxing as part of celebrations marking six months of its pioneering crime prevention programme, Moves Different.

Locals have been given the chance to step into the ring and try boxing and learn more about the positive impact the sport can have on young people and communities.

It is there until 5pm this afternoon (June 26)

Moves Different is an innovative crime prevention programme, supporting young people in school years nine to 13 who are considered most at risk of crime, violence, and anti-social behaviour, and Sheffield is one of the areas it is running.
