NE1 Ltd in partnership with Great Run Local is launching a free, weekly city centre run to give office workers in Newcastle the chance to leave their desks, have some fun, stretch their legs and get fit during their lunch break. Every Thursday at 12.45, the new weekly city run of either 2k or 5k will start at Newcastle’s iconic Quayside and take in a route along the river – both routes will start and finish at the Swirle Pavillion on the Quayside and will be organised by Great Run Local with volunteering staff from Ward Hadaway, Barclays Bank and North P&I Club along with Great Run Local volunteers.

Saturday 14 September will be a busy day for Newcastle and NE1 Ltd., as a brand new event takes over the historic heart of the city the Bigg Market, Newcastle Cathedral and Newcastle Castle.

NE1 Ltd is proud to support Newcastle’s first ever Dragon Boat Race on the River Tyne for a spectacular rowing challenge, taking place on Saturday 14 September.

NE1 Ltd has released the full movie line up for this summer’s Screen on the Green (and there is truly something for everyone to enjoy!). Everyone from musical maniacs to Newcastle United fans will be catered for in this summer’s schedule.
