All profits go towards our Life Change Fund
All money raised from our 2024 challenge events will go towards our Life Change Fund set up to help transform young lives in East Surrey.
This year, the Life Change Fund will support our youth housing projects. We recently opened a new move-on accommodation for 6 young people in Redhill. In 2024, we are aiming to raise £100k through challenge events towards refurbishment costs as well as furniture for individual bedrooms and communal areas.
Your fundraising will help to create a nurturing environment that truly feels like home. Join us in making a difference and opening the doors to a brighter future for young people.
As a registered charity, we believe in keeping our event prices as low as possible to ensure that everyone has the chance to take part. If you are able to donate or fundraise to support our charitable work in the community, we would be very grateful. You can make an additional £10 donation with your entry when registering or set up a fundraising page. Any amount you can raise will help to transform young lives in the local area, so please consider fundraising for us.
Media and Photography
As a public event, we will be taking photographs and video footage of the event and participants which may be used to publicise and promote future YMCA events. Please contact us if this is unacceptable to you.
All photos taken will be shared on this site and available to download at no extra charge.
