Story

From safety to hope – your support creates lasting change for young people.

Our YMCA provides temporary supported accommodation for vulnerable young people and adults across Nottinghamshire and East Riding. With your support we can ensure more young people find the help they need and create more stories like CH’s below.

CH’s Story: Finding safety and Building Opportunities

After years of loss and instability, CH arrived at YMCA searching for a safe place to rebuild his life.

With stability and support around him, he was able to seize new opportunities – from training for a new career to connecting with mental health support groups.

Today CH is thriving. He has the tools to move towards independence and the confidence to shape his future.

Thank you. Honestly I appreciate you guys a lot. I’ve never had this much help in 10 years, so I highly appreciate everything.”–CH, YMCA resident.

This Christmas, your support can help more people like CH find safety, hope and the opportunities they need to thrive for years to come. This Christmas, help us to pay it forward.
