📣Volunteer Appreciation Post #564 📣
A huge shout out to our wonderful Mindful Makers - Community Sewing Club! They have been working flat out to complete a canny pile of cushions for our event seats, pews and cafe benches!
They’ve used up-cycled and donated fabrics for this and met event Wednesday to work as a team to get these done for the winter season! Thanks to all involved!
These cushions have already been widely used by staff, visitors and other volunteers. If you would like to get involved, the team meet most Wednesday’s between 2-4pm.
Thank you! 🙏🏼

Since the first official postcard was issued in 1869 they have pretty much been a part of our lives! Not only have we used them to communicate - but they were great souvenirs to keep and treasure!
Today between 2-4pm, George Nairn (whom has been a collector of old postcards for the last forty years, and a dealer for the last twenty five years) will be using his collection of vintage postcards to take us on a journey that starts in Newcastle following the River to Tynemouth, then along the Northumberland coast to Berwick, the Tweed & Coldstream.
You can also-bring your own historic postcards for George to value or view .
Feel free to book your spot in advance via the link in our bio or below 👇🏼 or just come along. The room is warm and cosy, we have scones with cream and jam, and lots of hot drinks.

Roll up for a mystery tour back to the swinging sixties with BBC legend Bob Harris and epic music Journalist Colin Hall. They share a deep love for one of the most iconic bands of all time…The Beatles. 🎸🎶
We’re thrilled they are bringing their groovy speaking tour to 17Nineteen on Saturday 28th October. The evening will include previously unseen footage from Harris’ archive of Lennon and McCartney, and Colin Hall will tell all about ‘The Songs The Beatles Gave Away’!🎸🎶
By 1963 Lennon and McCartney were prolific song writers, so prolific in fact - that they couldn’t all be recorded and released by the fab four, so were offered to other great mersey-born artists of the day.🎸🎶 So what were they and who was lucky enough to snag one?
Join us on the 28th October from 7pm - spaces are limited so be sure to book. Click on the link below 👇🏼
