Whether you’re looking for an arts and crafts group, a physical activity or simply an opportunity to meet new people, there’s something for everyone on our What’s On page.

Our centre is a welcoming and friendly place, but we understand that visiting somewhere new or joining a group for the first time can feel daunting.

If this sounds like you, we’re here to help. We may be able to offer support to make your first visit feel a little easier and help you feel comfortable getting involved.

In Good Company

Join us every Wednesday at 1.30pm for our relaxed social group at St Martin’s Centre.

Enjoy a warm welcome, meet new people and take part in as much or as little as you like. Whether you’d like to join in with the weekly activity or simply enjoy a cup of tea and a chat, there’s a place for you.

Each week brings something different, with a variety of activities and opportunities to enjoy outings together.

Good Neighbours Newcastle

Good Neighbours Newcastle is a volunteer-led service that helps people live independently while building connections with their local community and accessing other support services.

The service is designed to support people who do not, or are unable to, leave their home regularly, as well as those who are socially isolated or living with physical or mental health conditions or disabilities that make it more difficult to live independently.

What our members have to say

Coming to the group today – it felt like climbing a mountain – but with some help and support it’s been great meeting new people and chatting.

Thank you for visiting my Mam – your visits really cheer her up. It gives her someone other than me to chat to.

I really enjoy our chats. We talk about all kinds of things. I get very anxious on my own and my tummy tenses up. But it helps when we chat, and I have some company.
