A POPULAR boxing gym is set to move to Kidderminster town centre in the new year.

Mikey's Boxing Gym, currently located on Whitehouse Road, will be moving to the former Pavers and leading labels outlet.

The gym first opened in 2015 and is run by Michael Mikolajczyk and his wife Kara.

Mr Mikolajczyk said it's going to be a big upgrade for his community-driven gym.

He said: "It's a big step forward for us and a big commitment. We are very optimistic about it.

"It's going to open up a lot more doors. It will be good for the community and the town centre.

"The support has been really good from the community and obviously our members.

"We have got the whole ground floor and the basement level. It's a big jump from what we are at the moment".

The new gym is set to open in January 2023.
