Refugee boxer Cindy Ngamba is one win away from an Olympic medal: ‘She's an inspiration to us all'

For one individual, the impact of being held in a detention center as a refugee is long-lasting. The person, originally from Cameroon, is unable to return home due to the country’s laws against homosexuality. They fear the possibility of being arrested again and live in constant anxiety. Despite these challenges, they have the talent to potentially win a medal at the Olympic Games. If successful, they would be the first person to win a medal for the refugee team they represent. This individual has faced many obstacles, including being denied British citizenship despite their accomplishments and support from boxing associations. Their training routine involves working with British boxers in Sheffield, but they do not receive payment due to their lack of citizenship. Despite the hardships, they continue to train and pursue their boxing career passionately.
