I am trying to contact the Newcastle Past and Present Boxers Association to see if they have any information regarding my elderly brother who fought bouts 1945 - 1948 under the name of Kev Burns. There are 12 bouts on BoxRec but no other information on his biography. As he now has alzeihmers. it would be great to be able to source photos etc. of this time.

If someone could please provide me with a name and phone number I would be most grateful.

I have a pal who collects old records in the North East so I will email him and see if he can help
