Who we are

New Hope North East is a registered charity based in South Shields. Since 2016, we have advocated for an inclusive world where all children are loved, valued, safeguarded, and treated equally regardless of their disability - free from segregation, marginalisation, and social exclusion.
We aim to promote social inclusion, diversity, and equal opportunity among families with disabled children or young people from diverse backgrounds, including asylum/refugee families.
We are a 90% parent-carer-led organisation with the objective of engaging “Hard to Reach” families. We help them access information, advice, and support by breaking down the barriers which prevent families from accessing social, educational, financial, and healthcare services.

How we achieve this

We do this through the delivery of four core services:
Day Trips and Events
We run a variety of inclusive family day trips and seasonal events and parties throughout the year.
Trips and Events
Children/Young People’s Activities
We run weekly activity sessions for children and young people, including arts and crafts, sports and games, cooking and baking, music and dance, and creative storywriting.
Activities
Parent/Carer Support Services
We run a monthly Parent/Carer Support and Wellbeing Forum—a supportive network led by parents and carers, to connect, share their knowledge and experiences, and discuss their challenges with one another. We also offer one-to-one advisory meetings, where we can provide person-centred advice and information, and signpost to relevant agencies, authorities and support services.
Parent/Carer Support and Wellbeing
Gardening
We have five wheelchair-accessible beds in the Trinity Walk allotment, from which we run group gardening sessions for families to plant, tend and harvest a variety of vegetables.

Our Values

The team at New Hope North East believes that every person should be loved, valued, kept safe and treated with dignity and respect. We recognise that finding spaces to thrive can be difficult for families with disabled children and young people, especially for those from ethnic minority backgrounds.
What’s more, we understand that disability is a community issue, not just an individual challenge, which is why we include the whole family in all of our activities. We know that disabled people and their families, especially those from ethnic minorities, have had their voices drowned out for many years, which is why we make inclusion a key part of our process.
