NE Youth 90th Logo

NE Youth

We are delighted to be supporting NE Youth at our LIVE Spring Fair in Newcastle this year.

NE Youth are the leading North East youth development charity making a positive difference to the lives of young people. This year is their 90th anniversary and as an organisation working for young people in the North East, they've planned a year of events to commemorate this special time.

Starting out in 1935 as The Northumberland Association of Boys Clubs, the organisation has changed and evolved over the course of 90 years. They now offer direct open access youth provision in communities and targeted programmes with young people – different to their original remit. Over the last nine decades have worked with over 1,000,000 young people across the region.
