Thank you, Currys!
A huge thank you to Simon and Alina and everyone at the Currys Customer Repair Centre in Newark, for generously donating six HP laptops to support young people at YMCA Village.
The laptops will be used as part of our Y-Kids and Youth activities, helping young people explore digital skills through projects such as podcasting and animation.
Partnerships like this make a real difference, providing access to technology, creativity and new experiences that help young people learn, grow and thrive. We're incredibly grateful for the support and generosity shown by the team at Currys.

This week is Youth Work Week, and we want to celebrate by talking about how our community’s young people have helped shape our activities for the better.

At YMCA Village, we try to offer opportunities for young people to build their confidence, develop skills and discover what’s possible for their future through volunteering and work experience. By working on the activities they regularly take part in, we get insider knowledge on what young people actually like, and there’s nothing more valuable than that.

We’re always proud to support the next generation of leaders and want to say a big cheers for the young people who are actively contributing to the future.
