Belfast YMCA
Belfast YMCA
YMCA believes in Youth Development, Healthy Living and Social Responsibility. In Belfast YMCA we deliver these through our Childcare, Fitness and Youth programmes. We are committed to community relations and citizenship, changing our society one person at a time.
Services
Childcare
We believe that children should be recognised as individuals and that their care provides the opportunity to stimulate physical, social, intellectual and emotional development. Regular open, supportive communication between staff, parents and children encourages our family–friendly culture, giving us all the opportunity to work, play and learn together. The YMCA is unique in being able to offer large indoor and outdoor play areas for children so that whatever the weather, they can engage in regular active play.
Fitness (gym)
The YMCA Fitness Centre in Stranmillis is located next to Lagan Meadows and provides convenient car parking. It offers a well equipped, air conditioned gym on the first floor and an exercise studio on the ground floor.
Youth
It can be hard to figure out your place in the world. As a young person with your whole life ahead of you, having the right guidance and support can make a real difference in figuring out who you are and what you can achieve.
