On this Armistice Day, #YMCAMK joins the nation and falls silent for two minutes to commemorate those who died in conflict. We also pause to remember the 42 YMCA civilian volunteers who sacrificed their lives. #YMCA #LestWeForget

One of our residents, Richie, developed a delicious soup in partnership with @MKCollege. Making this soup has reignited Richie's love of cooking. Why not support all our #YoungPeople to thrive and buy our #SoupFestMK recipe book. 👉 bit.ly/3FEH59D
