We would like to thank those who joined us in celebrating the official opening, and we cannot wait for the rooms to be filled!

The resignation tally on BBC News during the Liaison Committee is a level of pettiness that I am absolutely here for.

It was my 10 year work anniversary at the YMCA Humber this week and it seemed even more poignant and memorable because we moved into this amazing building.
I‘m so excited about the opportunities and support we‘ll be able to provide from this building. #excitedforthenext10.

👏👏We did it!👏👏

Yesterday we undertook the huge task of moving all our residents from Peaks Lane and The Foyer to our new building 21 Freeman Street.

A huge thank you to all the staff, residents and volunteers who helped move everyone across. 👏👏

👍Thank you so much to NELC Winter Grant funding👍

Today we collected our final food parcels for our 16-25 year olds.

We worked in partnership with Mel and the team from the Grimsby @CommunityShops who have helped make the funding go further with some amazing food.

A resident of #TheFoyer wanted to share his experience & raise awareness about homelessness in the hope that no-one else will have to be homeless.

So proud of our young people.

[YMCA Humber @YMCAHumber]

Residents at #TheFoyer are very conscious of the area they live in & formed a team to tackle the litter problem near their home
They've now been out a couple of times & it makes such a difference!
It also promotes a great team spirit!
