Thank you for making the ‘YMCA Race for Change’ unforgettable!


We’re incredibly grateful to everyone who ran, cheered, volunteered, and supported YMCA Worcestershire at this year’s Race for Change. As Charity of the Year for Run Redditch and RunThrough UK, we were proud to see our community come together to raise vital funds and awareness.

Special thanks to KANDY KID Entertainment and Michelle for adding fun, flavour, and excitement to the day!

Together, we’re not just running—we’re building brighter futures for young people across Worcestershire. 💙
