Once family man Rob wondered why he was here. The unexpected death of his father in 2014 hit him hard but with his mum’s help he found out what lay behind his fears. An expert’s diagnosis of social phobia set him on the long road to recovery. Once he knew the source of his mental health issues, Rob was able to build the routines and strategies into his daily life to help him cope, and these enabled him to take on new challenges.

Now he is a happily married man with a lovely baby daughter and another baby on the way, is well respected at work, and has friends and family to call on for support. But he’s set himself a final test, a charity white collar boxing fight night for the Children’s Air Ambulance. It’s not so much the fight which worries him as much as walking out in front of hundreds of people. Being the man he is, Rob prepares carefully for both, training hard and having his own motivational song recorded. Will he make it into the ring and go the distance over three two-minute rounds?
