Indeed, that spirit of togetherness, caring about the bonds that unite us, is everywhere to be seen in the Rother Valley. Dinnington boxing club held an event after the riots, with several south Yorkshire boxing clubs, to show unity and togetherness; a determination to portray south Yorkshire in a different light. That spirit runs through the club. I will always recall having a pint at the Little Mester in North Anston when a young lad from the club arrived to rapturous applause, only to explain that he had casually run a marathon that morning, on his own, wholly unorganised, to raise money for a local children’s hospice. He had heard that it required more funds for toys.
