YMCA England & Wales works across 688 communities, providing the critical foundations for a fresh, strong start in life. The 375,197 young people we help each year are at the heart of what we do, supported by more than 3,900 members of staff and 1,900 volunteers.

Story

Vestey Holdings and YMCA England & Wales have launched a transformative partnership to inspire the future generation and realise a shared vision to see young people reach their full potential.

Adventurers from Vestey Holdings and two of its businesses, Vestey Foods UK and Vestey Foods International, will journey through the rugged and dramatic landscape of the Lake District, as they venture across 12.5 miles and tackle five of England's most demanding peaks. The group will climb to over 3,000 feet, crossing crags and moorland past the Langdale Pikes towards the highest peak - Scafell Pike.

Colleagues from Vestey Holdings and its subsidiary businesses are raising money to support YMCA's work with young people experiencing homelessness. Those living in YMCA supported accommodation receive so much more than just a bed and a roof over their heads. Young people receive vital emotional support, training and employment opportunities, as well as a place in a friendly community where they can thrive.
