About

The Teesside Charity was established in March 2011 to provide social and economic opportunities that would not otherwise have existed in the area.

The Teesside Charity’s key function is to financially aid charities, community groups, schools and initiatives based within the Tees Valley who provide support to those who find themselves at a disadvantage in the society they live in.

The generosity and commitment of the charity’s platinum patrons, patrons, Infant Hercules Charity Club members and centurions help to support the most disadvantaged community members through regular donations. But being a part of the charity isn’t just about making a donation, it means you’re at the heart of making our region a better place to live, work and do business.

The Tees Valley is a deprived area of the UK. It has higher crime rates, more pupils eligible for free school meals and higher unemployment than the national average. However, it also has great resilience and motivation to excel in areas and together we can strive for a better Tees Valley.
