County Durham and Darlington Foundation Trust
Our small but perfectly formed NHS Charity supports 8 hospitals and over 150 community locations across County Durham. We rely heavily on the support of local businesses, groups and associations to help us to enhance patient care and wellbeing by providing essential equipment like scanners and multifunctional monitors, to specialist cots for the neonatal unit to toys and games in our children’s wards and departments. We run a series of events and activities for fundraising and hope to encourage fellow members to show their support for our charity by helping us, particularly in this the NHS’s 75th Year.
Established as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) in September 2017 we provide youth provision in several villages on the outskirts of Durham.
Currently we deliver to young people aged between 6 -18 years old in the villages of West Rainton, Pittington, Sherburn Village, Sherburn Hill, Bournmoor and Great Lumley.
Our core aims are to:
- Provide a young people led service, adapting and changing to their interests
- Provide a fun, engaging and safe environment for young people to develop confidence, resilience and social skills
- Offer a range of activities and support allowing young people to develop skills and progress in life
- Promote community participation

St Cuthbert’s Hospice is one of County Durham’s most loved and respected charities. Each year we care for thousands of individuals and families who need us at what is a truly challenging time. We must raise over £2 million every year to continue to provide In-Patient care, our day services at The Living Well Centre and our ground breaking dementia care service. We have a community of dedicated supporters and many local and national businesses who help us in our mission to make every day count.
Feet stop. Eyes pop. Jaws drop.
That’s what we all want, isn’t it? Events that make people feel something. Or do something.
And that’s what we create every single day – whether it’s the elegant glamour of award ceremonies, the buzz of a brand launch or the gravitas of international medical conventions and political party conferences.
From our gorgeous glass-domed space and amazing acoustics and lighting to our teams of seasoned event planners and detail-loving tech support, we’re always working to wow each person who walks through our doors.
We’ve got a load of flexible spaces (including a dramatic 1,640-seat auditorium and a more intimate 330-seat stage), built-in F&B options across our bright high-ceilinged concourse, and a panoramic view across the river to the Newcastle skyline. Plus we’re certified by both BEAM and AIM, so you know all those spaces are safe, accessible, and green.
And the cherry? We’re also a charity, empowering and inspiring people through music. So your event will make a difference as well as an impression.
Waythrough creates services and support to meet people’s complex health and social needs, helping them to build healthier lives that have meaning and value for themselves and their families. We support local people to create stronger, better-connected communities.
