About us
We're a local charity working in the community to support older people, their families and carers. We want everyone to be able to love later life.
Who we are
The Age UK North Tyneside Group was established in 1972 and has grown to become one of the largest local voluntary organisations in the borough. We have over 350 staff and 20 volunteers providing a wide range of services for older people in North Tyneside.
Where you can find us
Our main office is based at the Bradbury Centre in North Shields.
How we are funded
We rely on your support to keep serving the community. We are supported by charitable grants, legacy gifts and donations from the public, and income from Age UK charity shops.
What we do
-
We give advice
We know that growing older doesn't come with a manual. That's why we provide free and confidential information and advice for older people, their families and carers.
-
We offer help at home
Through EveryDay Care & Support, we provide care and support to over 400 individuals, enabling them to live safely in their own homes.
-
We support people affected by dementia
We help people with dementia and their carers to live fulfilling and rewarding lives. Our specialist dementia services help people living with dementia to make more of later life.
-
We provide social groups and activities
We run a wide range of activity groups and events, such as lunch clubs and exercise classes, giving older people the opportunity to keep fit, socialise, or learn a new skill.
