The Auckland Project

The restoration, redevelopment and reinterpretation of Auckland Castle is at the heart of a bold heritage-led regeneration project aimed at creating inspiring experiences, learning and opportunities for visitors, volunteers and locals. The lives of the Prince Bishops of Durham will be revealed; the story of the acquisition of the remarkable paintings of Spanish Golden Age Master Zurbarán will be told; and ‘Faith’ – a chronological narrative of how faith shaped the story of everyone within the British Isles – will be explored. The transformation of this 900 year old Bishops’ Palace from little known private dwelling into a major heritage attraction achieving an estimated 150,000 visitors per year, is at the heart of a collection of projects linking the Castle and Market Place that will be a major driver for economic revival and a catalyst of hope, optimism and dynamic growth for the community of Bishop Auckland and beyond.

The Bay Foodbank

The Bay Foodbank began in February 2012 with the fervent hope that we would be helping to meet a short-term need in the local community.

Sadly, over 10 years later, we are serving greater numbers of people each year.

Our aim is to provide food in an emergency to individuals, couples and families who find themselves in financial crisis. This is only possible through the support of everyone who helps by donating the food, money and time needed. We thank you for all your help.

A typical day can see us deliver anywhere from 30-50 emergency food parcels. In September 2022 we delivered our 45,000th parcel.
