As an inclusive Christian organisation YMCA St Paul’s Group would like to help you – Mind, Body and Spirit. The Chaplaincy team is around to chat in a one to one, catch us if you’d like a friend to go to the gym with, or join one of our groups to meet others and think about life.
We run frequent chaplaincy sessions at YMCA Surbiton, YMCA Wimbledon, YMCA South Ealing and YMCA Walthamstow. We also visit each of the housing sites regularly.
Support
The Housing teams, at most sites, are your first port of call if you have a question or problem, or if you want to share some good news. This webpage section aims to give you some details about housing, rent, benefits etc. and what to do if things change in your life, who to contact and what needs to happen. If your site does not have a housing team, please speak to on site staff for guidance.
YMCA St Paul’s Group will take action on any Anti Social Behaviour reported to us. This can include conduct that causes harassment, alarm or distress to anyone and conduct capable of causing nuisance or annoyance.

YMCA St Paul’s Group has a duty of care to you and a commitment to maintaining standards across our sites. We run annual surveys with residents to check the quality of our service delivery with you. We collate this and report on how we delivered according to your feedback, in the Residents Annual Report. We are commited to engaging you, our customers. The Customer Engagment Charter outlines this.
