Christmas Crafts at Eldon Square

We’ve teamed up with Age UK Northumberland, Age UK Gateshead and Eldon Square to provide Christmas craft activities for all of the family.

Join us from 2nd to 18th December 2022 and immerse yourself in the magic of Christmas by decorating Christmas cards, wooden baubles and making reindeer food to make sure Father Christmas stops at your house. You can also share a natter with the Age UK team and hear all about our wonderful volunteering opportunities and how to get involved.

The Eldon Square community space will be open daily from 11am to 4pm in St Andrew’s Way opposite MONKI. Why not stop by for a day of shopping to participate in one of our craft activities, including colouring in one of our Christmas cards? All decorated cards can then be posted in our postbox, which will then be donated to clients of Age UK North Tyneside, North Northumberand and Gateshead.
