Our Work 

Take a moment to see the work YMCA Tayside is doing in the community

 Universal Youth Work 

Universal Youth Work is open to young people between the ages of 11 and 19 years old. YMCA provide young people with spaces to meet other individuals of the same age, where they can socialise in a supportive environment.

 Y Innovate 

We are a Digital Skills hub for young people. Our project brings a multitude of digital learning opportunities into one place and is accessible to young people with a variety of different needs.

 Church Partnerships 

For each church partnership, we hire a part-time youth worker who is managed and offered support by YMCA Tayside to develop the youth work in that community.

 Youth Voice 

Youth Voice consists of a group of passionate and capable young people who seek to have more representation for themselves and for other young people in their community.

 Y’s Girls Mentoring 

Using a youth work approach delivered by trained volunteer mentors, Y’s Girls has been proven to empower young women, change behaviour and inspire positive choices in those referred.

 Prince’s Trust Team Programme 

The Princes Trust Team is a 12-week personal development course, offering work experience, qualifications, practical skills, community projects and a residential week.

 Covid-19 

The Coronavirus Pandemic made a huge impact on how we at YMCA Tayside were able to deliver our work and interact with young people. However, as lockdown restrictions ease and working face-to-face is now permitted, we are excited to be working with young people and are eager to see the positive changes this will bring.
