Membership
Join the movement
Membership of the YMCA is open to all, regardless of faith or background, who accept the aims of the movement and wish to share in its work. Members join through a local association, take part in its programmes, and elect the committee that governs it.
Categories of membership
Full members are over eighteen, pay the annual subscription and hold voting rights in their local association. Associate members take part in programmes without voting rights. Youth members are aged between twelve and eighteen and participate through the youth wing.
How to join
Contact your nearest local YMCA directly, or write to the regional office and we will put you in touch with the association closest to you.
