We’d like to give a huge thank you to Bounce for selecting Mary’s Youth Club as their charity partner this year.
Bounce is a place where people come together to unwind, socialise, celebrate, and enjoy some healthy competition. From our very first meeting with the team, it was clear they were warm, friendly, fun, and genuinely community-minded — our kind of people.
Bounce made it clear that this year’s Bounce City Cup tournament was all about backing Islington’s young people.
CEO Toby announced to all their Bounce friends that 100% of all proceeds would go directly to our work.



That incredible generosity set the tone for an unforgettable evening filled with fun, laughter, and of course plenty of ping pong action!
Despite playing regularly at youth club, it turns out our staff team wasn’t quite as talented as we’d hoped! but we were still the real winners on the night, with an amazing £10,250 raised and donated to support the work we do.
Bounce’s support didn’t stop there. They also booked us to deliver First Aid training to their team (hint: you can too!) and kindly offered their space for our half-term Family Day..
They have truly gone above and beyond to champion Mary’s Youth Club, and we are so grateful
A huge thank you goes out to everyone who participated, donated, and cheered us on.
Your involvement has made a direct and meaningful impact
Special thanks to:
Thank you, Bounce, for standing with us and supporting the young people of Islington. Here’s to more great things ahead!
