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

All surviving records for the Jarrow Deanery Moral Welfare Association are currently held by:
