Running as One: The YMCA Worcestershire Pack in Action!

This September, our amazing YMCA Worcestershire team took on the Wolf Run — tackling mud, obstacles, cold water (and yes, even more mud!) — all to raise funds for young people and communities across Worcestershire.

Colleagues from every corner of our organisation, including staff from all three of our nurseries, came together to challenge themselves, support one another, and show what’s possible when teamwork leads the way.

Thanks to their incredible effort and the generosity of our supporters, we’ve raised over £1,000!

Just as the Wolf Run tested our strength, stamina, and spirit, the young people we support face their own daily challenges — ones that call for resilience, courage, and community. Taking on this event reminded us of the power of standing together, lifting each other up, and pushing forward as one team.

Here’s to muddy trainers, teamwork, and making a difference. 💚

A huge thank you to everyone who donated, encouraged, and cheered us on — your support helps us continue changing lives across Worcestershire.
