YMCA Black Country do amazing work in our local community to bring opportunities to those who really need their help. From finding a bed, a place to call their own, right through to training & securing opportunities to enter the world of work, their work is fantastic! To give these opportunities to others though, does not come easily and there are inevitable costs involved... therefore, we wanted to support them to help as many people as possible avoid the prospect of becoming homeless, and give them a chance to thrive in an ever changing & daunting world.
Matt Hickinbottom from Midlands Creative will be climbing Ben Nevis in Scotland on March 22nd 2025 with his friend Marcus, and they'd love to use the pre-paid trip to raise some much needed funds... (Yes, the trip is already ready paid for by Matt so all money raised will go directly to supporting the people at YMCA Black Country).
So if you can spare a few quid, please support us to raise some extra cash this year. Unfortunately work commitments means Matt is unavailable for their usual fund raiser events, so this is a stand alone event to coincide with the fund YMCA are fundraising for... But rest assured, Matt & Marcus will be right behind the guys all year in their efforts to help bring an end to youth homelessness.
Some back story... 20+ years ago, Matt's friend was in this exact position and desperately needed the help of YMCA Black Country, and at a time when they were really needed, they came through for Matt's friend. This is why this organisation is so close to Matt's heart as he's seen first hand, the great work they continue to do.
