YMCA's 2016 World of Good report

Our 2016 World of Good report was commissioned by Central YMCA to find out what issues trouble young people today preventing them from being healthy, happy and fulfilled.

To create this exclusive report 1,600 UK 16-25 year olds were questioned about the barriers they face which stop them from building happier lies. The results revealed a generation affected by a wide range of concerns, from finding a job to the consequences of living in an ‘always on’ digital age.

Armed with this information, Central YMCA points the way on how we can help young people transform their lives for the better.
