Wallsend MEM (Peoples Centre & Memorial Hall) Get’s An Upgrade

Funding has been secured to modernise the Wallsend Memorial Hall & People’s Centre to maximise the space available inside for the future which will ais in future plans to offer conference and banqueting facilities, a unique location for Weddings and other private functions, as well as continuing to provide educational opportunities, training and guidance to the people of Wallsend.

Wallsend Memorial Hall & People’s Centre is a charity providing services to the local community in Wallsend and surrounding areas operating from within a fantastic building that was originally founded in the 1870’s by the Swan Hunter family to provide a cafe, meeting rooms, classrooms and even a shop.

Importantly the building also is home to a monument to the shipbuilding company’s workers who lost their lives in the First World War.
