A Historic Milestone
An afternoon to celebrate, remember and look forward.
For 125 years, YMCA Sutton Coldfield has stood alongside the people who needed us most — building confidence, providing housing, offering support, and creating a place to belong for young people, families and disabled adults across our community.
This is your invitation to join the supporters, partners, performers, alumni and friends who have shaped that journey. Expect great food, brilliant performances, an honest reflection on 125 years, and a glimpse of the next 125.
