Dear Members,
The Central YMCA Club at 112 Great Russell Street has now closed.
We are deeply touched by the many positive and supportive comments that have been made expressing gratitude and recognition of Central YMCA’s long-standing support for local communities over the years. Our commitment to this remains unwavering and we look forward to continuing that work through our other sites long into the future.
With regards ongoing provision and services:
We wrote to members in December 2024 with an update on services we will be retaining across our other CYMCA sites as well as through partner organisations.
For the latest on our community programmes, please see below. For more information on individual and corporate memberships, please see Memberships
Positive Health and Long-Term Conditions
The primary focus of our YMCA KX facility will be engaging with communities that face physical activity inequalities, using the exercise on referral model to support these people in sustaining longer-term physical activity habits.
We will continue running Positive Health for those living with HIV out of our KX facility and will reach out to individual members to manage the transition of memberships for those who wish to continue with us.
We are confident of being able to continue our other class provision for those living with long-term health conditions – more on our provision, including class schedules and pricing options can be found here
Older Adults
We will continue low impact and gentle exercise in our newly installed gym setting at KX and have concessionary rates available for the older adult community.
We have also been working closely with Camden Council and GLL (Greenwich Leisure Limited, the council appointed providers across the Borough of Camden) to ensure the continuance of provision with as minimal disruption as possible.
GLL are committed to expand their Community Programmes where needed to support the older adult community across Camden and surrounding areas, As a provider, they have facilities close to Great Russell Street and many, if not all, of the same amenities.
