Wear Together
A programme of weekly activities run in partnership with the EFL, designed to increase social interaction and reconnect those aged over-55.
The hubs aim to use the power of Sunderland Football Club in the local communities to bring people together.
Activities include coffee mornings, bingo, quizzes, table tennis, Sit and Be Fit exercise sessions, Pilates and much more!

Wear Together gives me a reason to leave the house and be more sociable. By coming to the Beacon, I have met new friends, done things which I thought I would not be able to do and more importantly has given me a more positive outlook on life.
