We have wrapped up another year full of exciting social opportunities, events, and treasured memories.
We are delighted to now have 8,910 registered members. Last year we sold 9,392 tickets and vouchers to events and places across the northeast and beyond. Each year we continue to strive to increase our member numbers, alongside our offering of events.
A significant highlight of the year was becoming an award-winning service, successfully securing the Trust’s Celebrating Excellence Award in Staff Experience!
During 2024, we ran events such as The Corrs at Utilita Arena, War Horse & Wicked at Sunderland Empire, Hot Pod Yoga, Afternoon Tea @ The Running Fox, Malmaison Liverpool Overnight Stay and so many more.
We also introduced our new & improved website, renovated part of the RVI fitness centre, changed our fee structure and increased our lottery prizes. We spent over £240,000 on events for our members and gave away over £65,000 through the monthly lotteries.
As we continue to grow our network of suppliers, venues and opportunities, our mission stays the same: to enhance the staff experience at Newcastle Hospitals through providing colleagues with access to a wide range of social, cultural, and recreational activities.
