Bit chilly out in #Shieldfield this morning 🤣
In a cafe space where lots of creative items line the walls, seven people sit around a screen where they’re watching the film of a conversation between two people.
Ended the day with community-led archiving. Almost my bedtime, so good job we had great company & pizza. We are watching filmed conversations between neighbours in #Shieldfield & learning lots about local history, assets, skills, relationships, issues & dreams. Building an archive for the future.
Anyone looking for some warming community time this weekend in #Newcastle is welcome to join our solstice gathering in #Shieldfield www.dwellbeingshieldfield.org.uk/events/winte...
Food, Music, Conversation, Community and this year....Juggling! Everyone welcome at this free community event.

Look at how much we collected
Doing the cut
And the garages.
Fantastic morning out in #Shieldfield with Dwellbeing on a #Community #LitterPick.
Absolutely inspiring to see what a difference a small group can make when they work together.

They also dealt with the #graffiti on the Garage Block near Lort House in #Shieldfield.
Will continue to report, but note that the Council can only remove graffiti from Council Property, so sometimes what is reported to us, can't be removed.
Great evening with the team from Dwellbeing at the Forum Cafe in #Shieldfield talking all things Planning and Licensing.
And how the Community can be represented effectively and fairly.
Some really thoughtful discussions and hopefully some fresh insights.
Or join a community litter pick, or volunteer at the Forum community cafe, or at the New Bridge Project or the at the Football Tournament.
Get involved with the reality of the community and country you live in.
You'll find that #Shieldfield is a welcoming, diverse and successful community.
Thanks Helen, really disappointed to see this in #Shieldfield.
This isn't pride in your Country, or Community, this is thuggery and intimidation.
If you've the time and inclination to get out and paint something in your community, feel free to join a Community Group like Dwellbeing.
Cont.
The pop up #recycling centre in #Shieldfield is going brilliantly.
Still lots of time to get your unwanted waste down to Milton Green for the team to take away.
They're there until 1pm today.
Bringing the tip to you!

The people behind the tipsy toad have apparently secured premises somewhere in #Shieldfield.
Normally I'd go off and take a look at the #Newcastle planning portal to work out where .
But I'm hungover.
