Established in 2019, we aim to provide the North with a source of regional and national news, a place to discover what events are taking place in your local area and a wide range of reviews and reflections.
Arts: We will provide up-to-date events listings, reviews of performances, shows, gigs and exhibitions. We will visit galleries and museums to share with you all the insights. Our book reviews will cover literature old and new; our film reviews will discuss what’s best to see at the pictures and, of course, we love to talk about the latest theatre shows and music performances. We’d like to hear from artists across the region - if you have an upcoming show, event or exhibition, we’d love to share it across the district.
