Proud of our #Horticulture #Apprentice Stephen Beech, who trained with us in 2014 and now owns a successful business and is training his own apprentices with us!

"I got so much help and support. As long as Central YMCA are going, I’ll be training apprentices with them."

Thank you to our local #Manchester MP @LucyMPowell for supporting and inspiring our learners at their graduation on Friday. It was a great event and was fantastic to see our post-16 learners gain their qualifications and get one step closer to their dream careers.

Meet Christina:
“Completing the course has made a massive difference and changed my life. I now meet and greet parents and am confident to do so. I am confident to do anything required of me now and every day is different.”

[Central YMCA @CentralYMCAUK]

The YMCA movement was founded by #apprentice George Williams so apprenticeships are at the very core of what we believe in and for over 177 years we have been transforming lives by breaking down barriers to life-changing opportunities
