Before anything else, I just want to wish you health, happiness, and success as we move into 2026. Life hasn’t always been easy— but the love, belief, and support is something i'm forever grateful for.

2025 was a huge year for SPAR — launching with a powerful screening at Left Hook Boxing Gym alongside Jawbone, raising funds for the gym and ending with a live boxing session that captured the heart of the project. From premiering on Link Up TV to community screenings in Manchester (thank you Anna “Arrow” Kruk) and London supporting Mind UK, SPAR continued to grow through culture, conversation, and community. We closed the year with SPAR’s North American debut at the Oscar-qualifying Urbanworld Film Festival in NYC, receiving an Honourable Mention for Best Episodic.

Thank you for the love and support — more to come in 2026. 🥊🎬
