Local care from a team that knows North Tyneside
Walfinch Newcastle supports people across North Tyneside with personalised care, companionship and practical support. Our local office is based at Royal Quays in North Shields, and we support people across communities including Whitley Bay, Tynemouth and Wallsend.
Every package of care is built around the person: their routines, their interests and the places they love. Whether you need a little help each week or more regular support, we start by listening.
Staying part of your community
North Tyneside has a strong sense of place, and staying connected to it matters. Our carers can support you to keep enjoying familiar places and routines, from a walk along North Shields Fish Quay to an afternoon in Tynemouth or a morning coffee in Whitley Bay.
Support out and about can be as much a part of care as help at home. That might mean company to the local shops, help getting to appointments, or simply someone to share a walk in the park with.
- Company for visits to local shops and cafés
- Support getting to appointments
- Walks in local parks and along the coast
- Help attending community activities and groups
- Keeping up with hobbies and weekly routines

Time to Thrive in North Tyneside
We believe care should help people keep doing the things they love, not just manage at home. Our Time to Thrive approach means support can include continuing hobbies, seeing friends, attending local activities and staying connected with the community around you.
For some people that is a regular trip to a favourite café in North Shields. For others it is a class, a club or a gentle walk along the seafront. Whatever thriving looks like for you, our carers are there to help make it possible.
