Overview
YMCA DownsLink Group is a charity working to transform the lives of vulnerable young people across Sussex and Surrey. We work to prevent youth homelessness and supply a home to 763 young people each night. We reach a further 10,000 young people and their families through our other key services, such as counseling, assistance and recommendation, mediation and youth work, so that all young people can belong, contribute and thrive. YMCA is the broadest and oldest youth movement in the world operating in 120 countries and supplying vital services for over 65 million people. YMCA DownsLink Group is a formation of local YMCAs across Sussex and Surrey. We can trace our legal history to Hove YMCA and in 2019 we celebrated our 100th anniversary which coincided with YMCA 175th anniversary. Our fascinating and insightful book, History of the YMCA in Sussex and Surrey was produced to mark these monumental milestones.
