The Heritage Project

The Londonderry YMCA Heritage project was dedicated to preserving and celebrating the rich history of Londonderry YMCA while inspiring future generations. 

We established a secure archive to protect over 165 years of historical artefacts, focusing initially on the 40-year history at our Drumahoe site. The archive has supported the creation of engaging resources, including digitised records, interactive exhibits, and a visual timeline to showcase our heritage and stimulate community appreciation for local history. 

By promoting intergenerational collaboration and educational opportunities, this project has safeguarded our past while building pride and identity, ensuring Londonderry YMCA’s legacy continues to inspire and enrich the community for generations to come. 

The Londonderry YMCA Heritage project was made possible with The National Lottery Heritage Fund, thanks to National Lottery players.
