Doug Bell the founder and first Chief Instructor of Whitley Karate club passed away aged 90.

The club started in the South Reading Community Centre where we still train to this day!
He created a legacy that we are proud to follow, if it wasn’t for him we wouldn’t have achieved anything like the success we have. We owe it all to him a warrior to the end.
RIP Doug.
Our Sympathies go out to Steve, Colin, Brad and all the Family.
