I live more than 1.5 mile from my closest shop, can I be a wellbeing participant?

At Hospitality & Hope, we strive to support the community of South Tyneside as much as possible. However, at the present time, residents/households situated more than 1.5 mile from their closest shop are unable to become either a wellbeing participant or a shop member due to funding constraints. We apologise and ask if you’re in any doubt as to whether you might qualify, don’t hesitate to contact us and discuss. 

Don’t forget to follow us on socials, to stay up to date with all the fun new activities & shop offers:
