YMCA Ireland is delighted to announce the release of our Annual Report for 2025, reflecting the collective efforts we have made to support young people, their families and communities to grow in body, mind & spirit.

Our YMCAs continue to engage with young people and families across 16 locations throughout Ireland, reaching over 25,000 Children & young people. In all of these communities we strive to create inclusive, safe spaces where everyone feels welcomed, accepted and inspired by social justice and peace for all.

We continue to focus on providing life enriching opportunities for young people, their families and communities. We seek to have an impact on youth development, healthy living, community engagement and a better world through our child care, youth work and community programmes. Nationally & internationally we seek to focus on global justice, climate change and international development. A particular highlight of the year was the development of the E2T and seeing many young people flourish through this SEUPB funded programme.

We have managed our resources well to ensure our finances are balanced and secure, and the financial statement gives a clear picture of our success in this area in the face of a cost of living crisis. 2026 will be a challenging year but also a year of opportunities where we hope to see new funders supporting us to develop our work in new directions.

Our thanks to all our young people, members, volunteers, staff, funders & trustees for their support during the year and we look forward to 2026 being a year in which we evaluate the current strategy and build a new Vision 2030 for 2027-2030.

Next year we will mark our 50th AGM & in addition to launching a new strategy, we look forward to a special event to mark this momentous milestone.
