Story
Turning mountains climbed into lives changed.
Over three consecutive days the Aiimi team will climb three mountains in France, Switzerland and Italy taking in summits twice the height of Ben Nevis and climbing over 9,000 metres!
The team are taking on this epic challenge through snow crossings and extreme conditions to raise money for the YMCA Milton Keynes and Northamptonshire.
After Aiimi moved from London to Milton Keynes, the team were shocked to find out the city’s levels of deprivation. Shortly after meeting CEO of the YMCA MK, Simon Green, the team at Aiimi were inspired by the story of the YMCA and its vibrant and caring environment.
The YMCA Milton Keynes supports 18-35 year olds who have experienced homelessness, are at risk of homelessness or mental health challenges. They provide young people with a safe place to call home and offer 24 hour support from 1:1 Personal Development Coaches to Out of Hours Staff. Alongside this the YMCA offers each young person opportunities to engage in activities and employment programmes, empowering them to build their skills and sustain healthy routines.
