YMCA has a proud history of offering physical education as a way of meeting the needs of young people. In the early days, YMCA sports programmes were seen as keeping young men out of trouble and encouraging clean, healthy lifestyles. 💪 That's why YMCAs today offers extensive health and wellbeing services, which are pivotal in promoting social interaction, a sense of belonging, and friendship. We also embrace the heritage of our inclusive Christian values, teamwork, and unity through sport. Learn more: https://bit.ly/46tC2UH #YMCA180✨ #Paris2024 #OlympicGames #Health #Wellbeing

Congratulations on the YMCA St Helens Youth Hub - what a fantastic, safe space for young people to thrive.
Congratulations are in order for YMCA St Helens on the launch of their incredible Youth Hub project. This project will give young people in the community a place to discover the full power of Youth Work! The fantastic centre was designed in conjunction with young service users and will be pivotal in addressing the needs of young people locally. It will deliver a space for them to be safe, comfortable, happy, and authentically themselves. In celebration of the Youth Hub launch, the community and sector partners came together to acknowledge the innovative new venture's accomplishment and share well-deserved accolades with everyone who has made it a reality for young people. YMCA is paving the way for young people to have the life chances they deserve. This is why, after 180 years, the YMCA still matters and continues positively influencing today! #YMCA180✨ #YouthClub #YouthServices #CommunityImpact

Assistant Business Development Manager, Nonprofit Sector. EDI and Charity Committee member at Moore Kingston Smith
On Friday our #Nonprofit Group had the pleasure of volunteering at two YMCA England & Wales sites - YMCA Thames Gateway Group (Romford) and YMCA St Paul's Group (Walthamstow). The whole group would like to say a big thank you to Latoya Bloomfield and her team at Walthamstow for looking after us and making us feel so welcome and to Olivia Galvin-Hughes for putting this all together. We painted the resident's area and we enjoyed every moment and can't wait to do it all again. #corporatevolunteering #volunteers #YMCA #MooreKingstonSmith #MyMKS
