thank you but the link that you gave doesnt actually give any information apart from the fact that it says it was a charity and its number not really the type of information I am after thanks anyway

I suspect it's a bit older than the charity link indicates-
1943- "Jarrow Deanery Moral Welfare Association, 29, King Street, South Shields."

Perhaps Durham Co. Records Office might have records? A 1930s meeting mentioned in their catalogue- see here (http://www.durhamrecordoffice.org.uk/Pages/AdvancedSearchCatalogueDetail.aspx?SearchType=Param&SearchID=fb792a36-26f7-424e-bbc1-399eef565c53&Page=3&ItemID=165492)
