Newcastle’s Caregiving Community: How Micro-Businesses Make a Big Difference

Newcastle upon Tyne Hidden Caregivers: How Local Businesses Make a Difference

Newcastle is a vibrant city bustling with over 829,000 people. Here, we celebrate part of the 5.6 million private sector businesses across the UK (UK government report, October 2023).  But what about the smaller players who quietly contribute to the heart and soul of our community? At Digital Growth Architects, we believe these businesses deserve recognition, especially those embodying the ‘caregiver’ spirit.

Whether it’s ensuring no one goes hungry, providing safe spaces, or supporting financial dreams, these businesses show how caregiving takes many forms.

Beyond Traditional Caregiving

We often think of caregivers as doctors, nurses, or those working in care facilities. However, the spirit of care takes many forms in Newcastle. Take Westerhope Convenience Store, for example.  Their commitment to offering either free or affordable food ensures no one goes hungry in our neighborhood. Or the Newcastle Building Society, a local institution dedicated to financial well-being, empowering residents to achieve their goals.

Big River Bakery uses locally-sourced ingredients, providing families with wholesome treats.  And the People’s Kitchen works tirelessly to offer hot meals and support to those in need. These are just a few examples – the caregiver spirit thrives in Newcastle’s businesses.

Then you also have the likes of The People’s Kitchen they make life on the streets a little easier by sharing hot meals and packages of clothing, toiletries, food, mobile phones and sleeping bags.
