BBC Radio Newcastle features Good Neighbours

We were delighted that the BBC Radio Newcastle Breakfast Show was able to join our Good Neighours shopping trip last week.

You can listen to the feature from last week’s show below. If you would like to get involved, please contact us for more information.
