Gateshead Development Partnership
St Chad’s Community Project is the lead partner in a partnership project along with Teams Life Centre, Chopwell Community Centre and The Winlaton Centre funded by The National Lottery Community Fund.
The project follows the learning gathered in the Locality Working in Gateshead Project (LWIG) which ran from September 2021 to September 2024 funded by Gateshead Council and The National Lottery Community Fund.
Over the course of 2025, the four partners have committed to working together to see growth both for themselves as organisations and their communities.
