Grenfell Tower inquiry: ‘The boxing gym was our home’

As the first phase of the inquiry into what happened at Grenfell Tower, Newsbeat meets the boxers at Dale Youth Boxing Gym, which used to be in the basement of Grenfell Tower.

Watch the video and listen to the radio piece below.

Hamid Sediqi trained in the boxing gym in Grenfell Tower so often that most nights, he slept there too.

Since the fire the boxing club has been relaunched just a bit further up the road.
