You can help change the lives of young women from deprived communities.
We have a wide range of job opportunities in our centres across England and Wales and in our administrative head office in Oxford.

Jane says
"It may be a cliche, but I really love knowing that the work I do at YWCA can genuinely help women to turn their lives around."
David says
"Too often people think that real poverty and disadvantage only exist in the developing world, but it's right here in the UK, often below the radar screen. I've worked in both and it is a privilege to fundraise for YWCA which really helps vulnerable young women realise their potential"
