Built in 1925 as The North Walbottle Miners Welfare Institute, the Centre was, and still is known locally as “The Tute”. Managed by the Association since 1977, the Community Centre serves the residents of Westerhope in the west of Newcastle upon Tyne and adjacent communities. As well as offering sport, leisure and educational opportunities, the Centre has long been a meeting place where residents can have a say in matters affecting the community. Ward Council Meetings are a regular part of this consultation process and the Centre also hosts local partnership groups representing schools, churches, resident associations and others with the interest of the community at heart. New groups are always welcome
The Association is a registered Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) and is managed by Trustees and Volunteers elected by its members.
We are committed to equality and welcome all, irrespective of ability, background or beliefs. The Centre has excellent disabled facilities and access.
