Support for young LGBT+ people in the Hexham area

A media hub for LGBTQIA+ community and allies. Incorporating Pride Radio, Pride World Radio and other LGBT+ organisations.

Pride Radio FM 89.2.

Northern Pride was formed in August 2007 after a brief gap in Pride activities following the closure of Pride on the Tyne. A research project was commissioned and carried out by MET Ltd to establish what the North East LGBTQ+ community would like from a Pride event. These results were fed back to the community in May 2007 and from this feedback, a group of volunteers came forward and formed the first Northern Pride Committee.

We work across Gateshead, Newcastle, North Tyneside, Northumberland, South Tyneside and Sunderland with a wide range of local, regional and national partners, including local authority leisure teams, public health, planners, transport teams, the education, housing and criminal justice sectors to name a few, to make it easier and a more attractive proposition for people to be physically active.

We are particularly passionate about helping under-represented groups and those who are currently moving for less than 30 minutes per week.

We’ve provided specialist enterprise training, advice and support for women in Newcastle upon Tyne for over 20 years.

Steps Together

A fuel poor household is one which needs to spend more than 10% of its income on all fuel use and to heat its home to an adequate standard of warmth.

Three things that contribute to fuel poverty are: the cost of energy, the energy efficiency of your property and your household income.

At Byker Sands Family Hub we have packs containing items and information that will help you make positive changes in your home. These changes will make your home more energy efficient with the aim of reducing energy bills.

The NHS Healthy Start Scheme is for people who are more than 10 weeks pregnant, or have children under the age of 4, who receive certain benefits.

Fire Cadets:

For young people aged between 11 and 17.

What is the Sustainable Warmth scheme with Newcastle City Council? 

Newcastle City Council has contracted Warmworks to deliver energy efficiency improvements to local homes under a project which is known as the Sustainable Warmth scheme.  

The Sustainable Warmth scheme aims to help people in Newcastle who live in energy inefficient properties, and who may be struggling with high energy bills, with the goal of making their home more affordable to heat.
