Support the YMCA Community and Activity Village
The YMCA Community and Activity Village is moving to its final phase and you can be part of it.
The transformational Village concept has been designed in consultation with thousands of people across Newark and Sherwood.
We’ve partnered with leading sustainable bank Triodos Bank to put together the funding to make it happen. This includes investment from Nottinghamshire YMCA, the D2N2 Local Economic Partnership, bank loans and investment crowdfunding. You can find out how to be part of it here.
What will the YMCA Community and Activity Village do?

Youth and Families
YMCA are experts in creating exceptional programmes for young people and families. The Village will unlock new opportunities to help young people realise their potential, from STEAM learning to excelling in sports or digital media.

Health and Wellbeing
The Village’s diverse world-class facilities and integrated health services will help everyone in the community look after their physical and mental health, whatever their ability or interest.

Education and Training
We estimate over 2,000 learners will access the Village every year. Apprenticeships, adult learning and college courses will be integrated into the fabric of how the Village operates, developing skills and employment outcomes for individuals and local businesses.
