It's fast becoming the park with something for everyone, and Saltwell Park will soon have new football and basketball courts funded jointly by Gateshead Council, Barclays Spaces for Sports, Groundwork and the Football Foundation. There will also be organised sporting activities on the site, programmed by Nacro, the national charity which works in local communities to give young people more direction in their spare time.
