what we're doing during coronavirus
Physical activity, exercise, keeping fit and engaging people in the arts and creativity is central to all we do here at Newport Live. In this difficult time we may not be able to support you in person, but we are committed to supporting you and your well being at home, our colleagues and our partners as much as we can.
Our Customers
Until we are able to welcome you all back to Newport Live venues safely, we want to provide you with information online that will help you to stay fit and healthy, support positive physical and mental wellbeing and inspire creativity whilst at home.
You can find lots of online sports and arts activities and exercises for you and your families to engage with on our Happy and Healthy at Home webpage.

Our Community
During this period of uncertainty we are working to assist with childcare for keyworkers in the city as and when required. We are working with Newport City Council to support the resilience of Newport and will be doing all we can during this emergency.
We’re also trying to support other partners in sports, art and beyond including promoting local artists and providing advice to other organisations.
Our Staff
Without the commitment, contribution and hard work of our staff, Newport Live would not be able to provide the fantastic service and facilities to our customers and communities. Whilst our venues are closed many of our staff are on temporary furlough but will be kept on full pay. During this time some of our staff members will be volunteering to help vulnerable people and to support those in need.
Support Us
Newport Live is a non-profit distribution organisation and charity, which means that all of our surplus income is reinvested back into the organisation to enhance our programmes, facilities, services and to support staff training and development. This would not be possible without your continued support.
We have been asked how you can continue to support us during these times, so if you are able, and would like to continue to support us during our closure, you can do so by visiting our Support Us page.
