Make Christmas Magical for Young People in Norfolk
Would you like to help change a young person’s life this Christmas with YMCA Norfolk?
Christmas can be a really difficult time for our young people and families, and a gift can go a long way. Your contribution means they won’t have to go without this year, and they feel cared for and supported by their community.
This Christmas, YMCA Norfolk is on a mission to raise £10,000 to bring warmth, joy, and hope to young people and families who need it most.
With your help, we’ll provide:
- A festive Christmas dinner for those who might otherwise go without
- Thoughtful gifts to show they’re remembered and valued
- Ongoing practical, developmental, and wellbeing support throughout the season and into the new year
We’re calling on kind-hearted individuals, local businesses, and our incredible partners to come together and make this Christmas truly special.
You can make a real difference…
“Christmas used to be the hardest time of year. Everyone talks about warmth and family, but when you’re homeless, it’s just another cold night alone. I didn’t expect anything — not a meal, not a gift, not even kindness. But then YMCA Norfolk stepped in. They gave me more than food and shelter… they gave me hope. For the first time in years, I felt seen. I felt like I mattered. That support didn’t just change my Christmas — it changed my life.”
