Wolverhampton YMCA is a Christian Charity working with people, especially the young, regardless of faith, race, ability, or gender.

We are affiliated to the International YMCA movement, but we are an independent local Charity with our own Board of Trustees generating all of our own resources.

Wolverhampton YMCA has existed since the early part of the last century in various locations, but was re-established in 1987.

We employ some 100 people who are supported by a team of volunteers without whom we wouldn't be able to offer the services we provide.
Wolverhampton YMCA provides:

* 54 units of supported accommodation for homeless 16-25 year olds.
* Affordable childcare in our city centre nursery for 0-5 year olds.
* Help, support and advice for 18+ year olds with substance or alcohol misuse issues.
* Community support and activities for all age groups in various parts of the city, including two Charity shops.
* Further education projects for adults within their local community.
* Learning opportunities for people seeking employment, education or training or seeking volunteering roles in local groups or projects.

The following pages tell you a bit more about the work we do and how you can access our services.
