MISSION INITIATIVE NEWCASTLE EAST 

Mission Initiative Newcastle East (MINE) is a charity which grew out of the work of four Church of England parishes in this area of deprivation as a means of connecting with the community and providing services that would benefit the welfare of the area. Our two main activities are in Youth and Children's Work and Debt Advice though we collaborate on other local projects.
