Snow and freezing temperatures are back across the country. This can be life-threatening for people sleeping rough.

If you see someone sleeping rough, please send an alert at https://t.co/iciQZ9PXy2 so that we can connect them to vital support.

Apprenticeships provide a valuable pathway to a successful career, but not everyone has equal access.

YMCA helps more than 619 young people bridge the gap with apprenticeship programs. Everyone deserves a fair chance.

Feel Good Friday!
Recently, as part of the support for one of our residents and her son, our team took them on a visit to a soft play centre! 😄
They both had a wonderful time and it has become one of their favourite mum and baby activities.

Recently, one of our residents went on a trip to the circus, after wanting to go for such a long time!
They had a great time and our support worker said: “It was so nice to support an opportunity like this and for someone who has never experienced it.” 😄🎪
