Help to raise the roof at historic community hub

The Donnison School Heritage Centre is raising money for a new roof.

The Donnison School was established in 1798 to educate 36 'poor girls' from Sunderland Parish.

In 2007 the Georgian Grade II listed building reopened, providing a community hub in the city's East End.

The venue now provides opportunities for community engagement through an annual programme of activities, events and community outreach.
