YMCA175 Fundraising Challenge
This year, YMCA celebrates its 175th anniversary. We are celebrating this monumental year with a number of events including some fundraising challenges.
Story
YMCA175 is about celebrating our collective history, shaping our future and telling the stories of our local YMCAs. To celebrate, our supporters, staff and volunteers are taking part in a number of fundraising events raising money for our More Than a Room appeal so that we can continue giving young people in crisis throughout Sussex and Surrey life-long tools to thrive.

Chase the Sun: Saturday 22 June - cycling 205 miles in one day from sunrise at the Isle of Sheppey to sunset at Burnham on Sea.
RideLondon - Surrey 100: Saturday 4 August - a 100-mile cycle challenge from London to Surrey.
