YMCA Montrose Charity No. SC016133 Creating Opportunities, Supporting Families At YMCA Montrose—known locally as MoHUB—we’re committed to making a meaningful difference for young people aged 8 to 18. Our co‑designed youth sessions provide a safe, welcoming space where young people can learn, socialise, and thrive without barriers. From gaming and crafts to homework support and wellbeing activities, every part of MoHUB is shaped around what young people need and value. We keep costs low so every child feels equal, and we provide a free hot snack at every session to help tackle food insecurity. Mental health support is central to our work too—our dedicated Health Youth Worker ensures young people always have someone to turn to. Beyond youth work, our FoodHUB project supports around 30 households every week. Offering essential help to families across our community, from tinned food to hygiene products, fresh fruit & vegetables to pet food. Together, we’re building brighter futures—one young person, one family at a time.

Looking to help those in poverty, initially we will target families who currently receive clothing grant and then offer out to other families who may be in hidden poverty. We provide snacks to any children who come to school without. On a Thursday all children have the option to have toast as snack at play time. We also have a community cafe once per term. At harvest and Christmas time we collect donations from families for the local foodbank

The Montrose branch of the Royal British Legion has a team of dedicated, forward thinking volunteers who engage with the wider community promoting inter generational activity, health and wellbeing, commradeship and welfare while combating social isolation. We have an area Welfare Team who help signpost individuals needs and we provide support locally where needed. We welcome local charities and community groups to use our premises for various purposes with minimal or no charge. We currently collect surplus donations from our local branches of Lidls, Aldis and Tescos, and we share any excess with other Community groups and Charities in the area.
