The Teesside Charity’s primary purpose is to provide financial support to charities, community groups, schools and initiatives across the Tees Valley that help people experiencing disadvantage within our communities.
The generosity and commitment of the charity’s Platinum Patrons, Patrons, Infant Hercules Charity Club members and Centurions enable us to support some of the region’s most vulnerable people through regular donations. However, being part of the charity is about more than making a financial contribution. It means playing an active role in creating a better place to live, work and do business for everyone in the Tees Valley.
The Tees Valley, made up of the five local authority areas of Darlington, Hartlepool, Middlesbrough, Redcar and Cleveland, and Stockton-on-Tees, is one of the most deprived regions in the UK. It experiences higher levels of crime, unemployment and eligibility for free school meals than the national average. Despite these challenges, the Tees Valley is a region defined by its resilience, ambition and determination to succeed. By working together, we can help create a stronger, fairer and more prosperous future for everyone.
