Couples attending this weekend’s Pride festival in Newcastle (July 21) are invited to find out more about the opportunity to tie the knot in North Tyneside.
The council will have a stall at the event, which is a colourful and vibrant celebration of LGBT life.
North Tyneside Council registrars will be on hand to discuss people's options for their special day, and hand out brochures showcasing some of the borough’s most stunning venues, including the stunning, newly-refurbished Spanish City Dome, in Whitley Bay.
They will share the stall with members of the council's fostering team who will be there to advise people who are serious about fostering a child, as well as the authority’s Employment and Skills team.
The team will be available at the event from 12pm – 3pm.
There will also be a prize draw for the chance to win a complimentary afternoon tea for two at Valerie’s tearoom, within the Spanish City.
The festival begins with a colourful parade from Newcastle Civic Centre to Nuns Moor, taking off from the centre at 12pm. More details can be found at the festival website, www.northern-pride.com.
