Please join us in sending our condolences to the family of Dorothy Thompson.

Dorothy lived in West Allotment, she was a huge supporter of Tin On A Wall. She would insist on buying tins in her shopping dispite her family suggesting to donate something from her cupboard. However she insisted that she got tins especially for us! She would often pop out when Pam (volunteer) was collecting and have a good chat about it! Dorothy wouldn’t walk past anyone without saying a friendly word. She loved helping others. A very friendly lady-known by many in West Allotment.

Rip Dorothy ❤️

Some sad news to share, one of our oldest supportors died last month aged 95.

This lovely lady was called Meg and she was a regular donar on Preston Grange estate in North Shields. Sue (volunteer pictured) and Meg actually worked together at the Electricity Board a number of years ago.

Sadly Meg passed away peacefully on 8th January - aged 95! We would all like to take the opportunity to pay tribute to Meg and her loyalty and generosity. We send our love and condolences to her daughter Wendy, and their whole family.

Rest in peace Meg. You will be missed.

Really saddened to see that on tonights news, Building Futures East in Walker is being forced to close. Thinking of you all, especially Dawn and Peter.
