A PRIORY Park boxer has raised cash to support his brother's cancer battle.
Jarrod Grant managed to raise £850 thanks to fighting on Priory Park’s boxing shows and has donated the cash to brother Latham, who is currently in the biggest fight of his life after being diagnosed with throat cancer.
Jarrod fought on a development show as well as an England versus Ireland contest where he held a raffle and auction.
He has also been supported by mixed martial arts fighter and Geordie Shore star Aaron Chalmers, who also now trains under Priory coach Paul Gough.
Latham Grant said: “I just want to say thank you for all the support through this really rough time of my life. Jarrod keeps coming back and saying everyone's been asking how I am and little things like that mean the world to me at the moment.”
