The Sale of MEA House

As of June 2023 MEA House has been sold to Northumbria University.

Therefore, Newcastle Vision Support is currently on the hunt for a new premises. At present we will continue to run all of our services as normal.

There may be some disruption in the near future when it comes to packing up the office and moving into a new premises. Despite this we would like to reassure all of our service users that they do not need to worry – the charity and its services are going nowhere, we are simply just relocating.

This is a fresh new start for everyone here at Newcastle Vision Support, so its onward and upwards from here. However, as always, if you do have any queries please don’t hesitate to contact us.
