Charity Partner

NewcastleGateshead Initiative is delighted to have a year-long partnership with St. Oswald’s Hospice as the charity celebrates its 25th Anniversary.

We have worked with the charity on various fundraising efforts since 2009 and this year decided to formalise the partnership as part of a move to work more closely with charities that benefit communities across Newcastle and Gateshead.

The partnership is the first in a programme of year-long collaborations where NewcastleGateshead Initiative has pledged to use its position within the business community to help charities raise their profiles as well as funds.

St Oswald’s Hospice provides specialist care for North East adults, young people and children with life limiting conditions. Annual running costs are £8.5 million, of which £6.5 million must be raised through voluntary giving. No charge is made for the services provided ensuring hospice care is available to all.
