​Save The Li’l Community Hub + Soundbites: Keep a Lifeline Open for North Shields

​Right now, The Li’l Community Hub + Soundbites is facing a devastating funding crisis. Without urgent financial support to counter rising operational costs and reduced grant funding, we will be forced to close our doors forever.

​This isn't just about losing a building. It's about losing a vital lifeline where local people, families, and vulnerable residents find friendship when they are isolated, support when they are struggling, and hope when life feels overwhelming.

​​Why We Exist: A Safe Space for Everyone

​Run by a dedicated team of volunteers, we provide mental health and wellbeing support through creativity, relaxation, and music. Every week, we offer an accessible, warm space to combat loneliness and help those facing severe hardship.

​ Connection Through Music & Community

​From our vibrant ukulele sessions to outdoor group walks, we give isolated residents a reason to smile, connect, and rebuild their confidence.

Creativity, Comfort & Care

​We nurture the community at every stage of life—whether it's providing sensory relaxation for the youngest members of North Shields, hosting creative writing workshops, or offering practical relief like our pet food bank.

How Your Donation Makes a Difference

​Demand for our services has never been greater, but our future has never been more uncertain. Every single pound helps us cover essential utilities, protect volunteer opportunities, and keep our doors open.

​£5 could provide refreshments for isolated local residents.

​£25 could support a community activity or creative session.

​£50 could help cover rising essential utility and warm space costs.

​£100+ could keep our doors open for the vulnerable people who need us most.

​ Once it's gone, it's incredibly difficult to replace.

​Community hubs like ours are built over years through trust, compassion, and hard work. Today, we are asking our community to stand with us. Please donate what you can, or share this campaign with your networks before it is too late.

​Together, we can prevent closure. Together, we can save our hub.

​Donate Today. Share Widely.
