Raise your hand to help.

A small monthly gift could mean a sensory session for a child, a moment of joy for a family, or simply keeping the lights on. It all adds up — and every bit of support helps us keep the Alan Shearer Centre free, open, and life-changing.

The Alan Shearer Foundation supports the Alan Shearer Centre in Newcastle: a highly specialised, disability and social provision for disabled children and adults and sensory impairments. We need to raise at least £320,000 every year to continue providing these free sensory and leisure activities.

Story

Help Us Keep the Centre Open — and Free

The Alan Shearer Foundation exists to fund one of the UK’s most unique places: a specialist Centre offering free sensory experiences and support for people with complex disabilities. It was created with a donation from Alan’s testimonial — and nearly 20 years on, he’s still leading the charge to keep it going.

Your support means more than you know. Join us, and be part of something that truly changes lives.
