We are super excited to be doing a weekly what's on for BBC Newcastle and Tees.

We only have room for 8 events which is super tricky because there's so many good things on! You can hear our segment on BBC Radio Newcastle & Tees every Wednesday on the afternoon show.

This week Craig has again stepped in as I still have a lingering cold.

I will do a weekly post just like this so you can easily find the events we are mentioning along with links to other handy posts.
