YMCA London City and North (YMCALCAN) is an independent charity affiliated to the YMCA movement that was founded in 1844. Our work is based on the ethos of the international movement, and we work across some of London's most deprived boroughs in Islington, Harringay, Tower Hamlets, Newham, Barnet and Hackney as well as the City of London. It’s a patch that over 600,000 young people call home.

We passionately believe that every young person should have the opportunity to build a future of their own choosing. Over 150 years we have helped shape over 100,000 young lives. We specialise in engaging those who are hardest to reach, creating aspirational settings and delivering a range of interventions that allow them to thrive.

We hold a specialism in youth homelessness offering 400 bed spaces including move-on accommodation. We deliver an extensive programme of interventions that supports a young person’s physical and mental wellbeing and their transition to independence. We enhance this with facilities that benefit our local communities including youth hubs, community hubs, youth fitness centres and community fitness centres and through a programme of events.
