Traditional Shotokan Karate in Sunderland, UK

Vandalised

We recently set up a free karate class for people who are on benefits.

We understand from personal experience how soul destroying it can be to be on benefits and thought that we would do something to help people in this situation.

We had a banner made up to promote this and it was put on display for all to see.

The poster

Sadly, certain individuals decided to vandalise the poster.

Resentment, bitterness or just pure stupidity? Who knows? The reason behind this wanton act of ignorance remains a mystery.

One thing Karate teaches it's practitioners is respect; for themselves, for others and for property. This could not have been done by a true martial artist.
