We continue to see fantastic examples of people doing extraordinary things to help others and it's really important that these efforts do not go unnoticed. Our local communities have continued to help those most in need and continually show that the strength of our borough comes from the people within it.
"I'd like to ask everyone to think about who they know that makes a difference to others in Gateshead and would encourage them to nominate these people or organisations for a Gateshead Award."
