🌟 National Youth Work Week Spotlight: From Resident to Youth Worker 🌟

This week we’re celebrating one of our brilliant youth workers, whose journey with YMCA St Paul’s Youth Project is nothing short of inspiring.

After arriving in the UK and living as a YMCA resident, PS was looking for a new start. With a background in Sports Science and a passion for helping others, he joined our Youth Team and hasn’t looked back since.

Through sport and fitness, he helps young people build confidence, discipline, and community, creating a safe space where they feel seen and supported.

“Seeing young people grow is the best part of my job,” he says. “They’re like my younger siblings - I’m so proud of them.”
