                  Since 2000, more than 172 lives have been lost to deadly blows to the head, with hundreds more injured. Danny Green’s STOP the Coward Punch Campaign was started in 2012 with the aim of raising awareness of the devastating effects of the coward punch on the community, including the physical and mental scars survivors, families and friends are left with for life.
