Story

I’m raising money for YMCA DownsLink Group by running the Brighton Half Marathon. Working for YMCA DownsLink Group has given me a deeper understanding of the crucial support we provide to young people facing challenging circumstances.

YMCA DLG offers a range of services, including safe housing, therapeutic support, and guidance, to help young people rebuild their lives and gain the confidence and skills they need to move forward. I see firsthand how these services make a real difference in the lives of young people, and it’s this work that motivates me to push myself in this race.

By sponsoring me, you’re helping YMCA DLG continue its vital work in supporting young people across Sussex and Surrey. Every contribution, no matter the size, will directly support the resources and services that make a tangible difference to the lives of those we work with.
