The mother of all surprises for one community hero
Back in the late ‘90s, a young Steadman Scott and his friend Tony were determined to find a way to change the lives of local disadvantaged people through sport. They founded the Brixton-based community project, Afewee Training Academy, a boxing and football centre in the area of South London the pair call home.
Since the first session in a Crystal Palace park, the National Lottery funded academy has made a huge difference to the community – and even has a few amateur boxing champs to its name. However, in all that time Steadman Scott hadn’t seen his amazing mum. That was until he got the surprise of his life when we flew her over as part of The National Lottery’s ‘Big Surprise’ on ITV.
