3rd Gateshead Boys Brigade

The 3rd Gateshead was founded on the 9th February 1985, at Wrekenton Methodist Church, by Alan Young and Tom Walker. The company has just celebrated its 50th anniversary.

The 3rd Gateshead has a great history of sporting achievements, including athletics, football, hiking and swimming to name a few, not only at battalion level but district and national levels too.

We also have a robust Duke of Edinburgh’s Award programme with may lads attaining their Bronze, Silver and Gold awards.

We have just celebrated our company’s 50th anniversary in 2008 with a program of sports, church services along with our company nights.
