Earlier this week Welsh Government representatives visited us as part of the Community Facilities Programme application.
During the visit, we provided an overview of YMCO’s journey, how the organisation started, how it has developed over the years, and how it continues to evolve in response to the needs of our community.
We discussed our current projects, highlighting the impact of our work and shared our future plans for the YMCO Hub, in securing a space that truly meets the needs of the community.
Following the visit, we are now in the process of providing additional supporting information as per the application process.
We would like to extend our sincere thanks to our community, partners and supporters for your continued patience and encouragement throughout this process.
Together, we are building a stronger, more connected future for Newport. ✨🙌🏾🫱🏾🫲🏿
