Today marks the start of Volunteers Week and that means it’s a week of celebrating our incredible volunteers who make a real difference to the lives of people within our services 😃

We want to thank every single one of our volunteers.

We understand that coming out of hospital following a mental health admission can be incredibly tough.

That’s why we have Nightingale House, a safe space to help people settle back into the community, build coping skills and find a suitable long-term home.

This Mental Health Awareness Week, we’re shining a spotlight on some of the work we do to support people in the North West who are struggling with mental health issues.

We have two dedicated accommodation services – Nightingale House and Stepping Stones.

#YMCA #YMCA Together

The theme for this year’s Mental Health Awareness Week is ‘movement: moving more for our mental health.’

Movement is one of the most important things we can do to help protect our mental and physical health.

In alignment with YMCA Together's dedication to the well-being of our local community, Claire, our Housing Manager at Leeds Street, organised a litter pick-up event in the local area.

This received support from our dedicated staff and managers spanning various YMCA Services.

This is an important week for YMCA Together.

We work hard throughout the year to raise awareness about mental health and embrace each other with care, empathy and compassion.

Let’s all work together to shine a light on mental health, supporting each other every step of the way.
