About the National Council
We all need to feel OK about ourselves is to be valued by others and to feel we belong.
The YMCA wants every person to feel this sense of:
- Value and purpose
Enjoying a growing self-esteem and confidence - Belonging and trust
With a sense of a future - Growth and development
Positive relationships with family, friends, and the wider community. The YMCA wants people to be the best that they can be - in mind, body and spirit.
28 YMCAs across Wales seek to develop these qualities in young people through a wide range of programmes, services and activities that respond to their needs and give them opportunities for positive development in the key areas of their lives.
A common thread runs through all of the YMCA's work: a committment to promote positive personal growth and build healthy communities - life in all its fullness, and fullness of life for all.
