Donate to YHA by Direct Debit
A direct debit means you can give small amounts every month that make a huge difference to YHA’s work.
For 95 years YHA has helped all, especially young people of limited means, to explore the beauty and breadth of England and Wales.
We’ve been here for generations, looking after unique places and creating experiences that inspire lifelong love of travel, the outdoors, heritage and nature. Adventures that turn lives around.
Help us keep going for generations to come.

Why make a monthly donation?
Travel and adventure are proven to improve mental and physical health and wellbeing. That’s just under normal circumstances. Now, more than ever, people need YHA and the access we provide to green space, affordable breaks, and opportunities that build confidence, resilience and skills for life.
