Due to a recent break in and seeing the damage that has been caused, we have now taken a decision to listen to our fans and create this crowd funder page. 

Our building is the only one of its kind in the world and what we do to support all areas of health and education through our collection of football memorabilia is immense. Due to many previous break ins and acts of vandalism our future needs to be given more security and that's why we are setting up this crowdfunding so you all can support with a donation which will allow us to continue doing what we do best in the communities we serve. Our aim is to build on the outreach programmes that we have been running for a number of years now. We also wish to protect a building which is now nearly 180 years old and is also grade 2 listed. 

We reach hundreds if not thousands of people a week and we see ourselves as being an important cultural hub in the city as well as being a foundation for mental health. We interact with both young and old without discrimination or favour. We are integral to the life of the city but we also continue to offer our services far and wide across the North East Region.
