Supporting Local Charities


We have been supporting small, local charities since 1983, and are proud to continue supporting these charities that need financial help the most. 

Raising Money for the North East


We have already raised over £400,000 for local, North East charities and we don't plan on slowing down now! The Charities we work with are small, grassroots charities and may have difficulty accessing funding, so the support they receive from NELD is a big step in keeping these charities going.

Our Ladies Luncheons


We host two major annual events, which are our primary fundraising efforts for the local charities we support. The NELD events have consistently grown and continue to be a sold-out success!

North East Ladies Giving Back to Local Charities

In 1983, our president, Jean Stuart, had a vision for ladies to come together in friendship and raise funds for local and well deserving charities.

We are proud to continue this tradition of supporting local projects that have no other access to funding. These charities and projects continue all thanks to the attendees of our events, who continue to purchase tickets and make each of our events a massive success!

Charities We've Supported

Rivers of Life Christian Fellowship

We funded the refurbishment of a large upstairs room which can accommodate the community for events, be hired out to raise much needed funds and used as a weekly meeting room for Steel Grace, who are open to ladies on a Tuesday 12 – 5pm when they offer lunch, tea & coffee and clothes to ladies in need or who are just looking for company.

The Chris Cave Foundation

Theresa and Tom Cave are the mother and brother of Chris Cave, who was stabbed to death whilst helping other young people who were going down the wrong path. The foundation supports and educates families and local communities affected by violent crimes, whilst providing an outlet for young people influenced by violent crime to focus their energy and gain new skills.

NELD supported the young person's activities throughout the summer holidays including, 2 x family first aid classes to bring parents together to spend time with their children and learn and have fun at the same time.

Senses Wellbeing 

We funded play equipment including fibre optic lights for their therapy centre who support some of our region's most complex children and adults as well as lots of items for those children with ADHD who are thrill seeking!

Hartlepool Reloved

NELD Supported the set up of Hartlepool's first free clothing shop which opened February 2023. In the first two weeks alone over 300 people were helped with warm clothing and coats.
