A popular festival celebrating North Tyneside’s golden generation is returning next month.

‘Age Takes Centre Stage’ will be taking place throughout October with a jam-packed programme full of events and activities specially designed for older residents to try something new and meet new people.

The annual month-long festival runs throughout October with a varied programme of events and activities from ‘meet the author’ events, coffee mornings and tea dances to activities like badminton, walking football and bowling.

The festival is a joint project between North Tyneside Council and Age UK North Tyneside to encourage residents to meet new people, develop new interests and visit new places.

For more information, pick up a free festival programme or nomination form from any North Tyneside Library, North Tyneside Council venue or Age UK Centre in North Tyneside.
