Newcastle United fans asked to approve £200,000 to four Tyneside charities nufc
Three months after the Newcastle United owners took control of the club, January 2022 saw the Newcastle United fans ‘1892 Pledge Scheme’ brought to an end.approaching 14 years in control of the club, NUST set up the 1892 Pledge Scheme to raise cash from supporters, in the hope that if the club was ever sold, new Newcastle United owners would allow pledge money to be used to buy a collective stake in NUFC, no matter how small.
With the consortium and the ownership set up, it was always very difficult to envisage how exactly a share of the club was going to be allowed for the Newcastle United fans and so it has proved. The North East of England has many deserving charities and how to best distribute the funds was a question not easily answered. The Pledge Committee wanted to support multiple charities yet provide selected charities with enough money to make a significant difference to the lives of the people the charities support.
It’s beautiful, too, because the notion of fan ownership is one worth fighting for, then and now. It’s beautiful because as a result of the takeover, the second part of the Pledge comes into effect, which is that the funds you helped raise will be distributed to worthy causes across our region. And it’s a success because as we have seen at St James’ Park over recent months, the force of a united Newcastle can make big things happen. You did that.
I’m so proud of our beautiful failure, our beautiful success. I’m so proud of us, so proud of you. Thank you for everything you’ve done.The Pledge Committee has spent several months speaking to charities and learning about their needs and funding requirements. Charities were asked to provide funding requests for the Pledge Committee detailing why money was needed and what projects it would be spent on.
Pledge Guardians are willing to attend an online meeting with members before the vote deadline if there are questions that cannot be answered. If you would like to put questions to the Guardians or Trust Board, please email the Board at the above email address if you would like to take up this option and a suitable time will be sought.
