✨ Rock Solid Futures – Paint a message onto a stone to make our community stronger! ✨

Play for a Purpose – Your Donation Makes a Difference!

Get involved and donate to support young people in our care and scholarship programmes.

  • Soft Archery – Test your aim in a safe and fun challenge
  • GAGA Pit – Fast-paced action in our ultimate dodgeball-style arena
  • Art & Design Station – Get creative and make something amazing
  • Pebble Painting – Share a message and add to our community display

Donations go towards supporting children living in YMCA Newark residential care homes and funding scholarships for activities at the YMCA Village – giving young people opportunities they might otherwise miss.

You can donate by card using our portal or drop cash into our collection bucket – every contribution counts! 

✨ We are on stand EQ1 – Kids Corner ✨

We invite you and your families to share your voice on “What does a better Newark look like for you?”

 

  • A word they associate with a better future (e.g. Kindness, hope, unity, safety)
  • A symbol of what they’d like to see more of (e.g. A tree, clean streets, people holding hands)
  • A goal or value that matters to them (e.g. Freedom, friendship, fun, fairness)
  • An emotion or colour that represents how they want to feel in their community.

 

Once you have designed your rock, place it onto the map of Newark.

✨Come talk to us about everything the YMCA has to offer. From fun activities for young people to a welcoming gym, climbing wall, and even a nursery – there’s something here for everyone. Whether you’re looking to get active, try something new, or just feel part of a community, we’ve got you.✨
