Family Gateway

We work to improve the lives of people across Howdon, North Tyneside and the wider North East.

We do this in two ways: providing activities and resources to residents at Howdon Community Hub, and offering direct support services to help people overcome issues affecting their lives.

We’re proud to call Howdon home, and our community hub is the base for all of our work. Having a place where people can access our full range of services allows us to help people in whatever way they need. Working this way means that we can provide engaging and community focused activities to people who need them, and this can be a foot in the door in situations where people need to take that further with intervention from our family services team.

We put our community members at the heart of everything we do. Our work can only be successful if it helps them create the life they want for themselves. When we provide support in people’s homes, we make sure that the end goals are always set by them.
