Boxing clever!

BOXER Nathan Heaney has become an honorary doctor of the University of Staffordshire in recognition of his achievements in and out of the ring.

The award recognises the 36-year-old not only for his sporting accomplishments, but also for being a passionate mental health advocate and his role as a positive influence for young people.

The former British middleweight boxing champion received the honour during graduation ceremonies held at the university's Stoke-on-Trent campus - where he delivered an inspiring address to the graduating class of 2025.

A proud alumnus of the university, Nathan has a degree in sports science, and a foundation law qualification.

He told the graduating cohort: “I know exactly what you have been through. I know how hard it can be, but you've all done it.
