DONCASTER YOUTH FOR CHRIST

Registered charity 1174477 · accounts filings on the Charity Commission register · also known as DONCASTER YFC

We are a Christian charity focused on working with young people throughout Doncaster. We are about seeing young people's lives changed by Jesus. We do this by working with churches to provide events and regular activities for young people in areas where there is little to no youth provision. We also train churches and leaders to effectively work with young people long term.
