Report written by Newcastle runner
Chris from Big Local Gateshead had promised no rain for the leaflet delivering task, and although there was a little bit, the task was a success. Big Local Gateshead are hosting an event on Saturday, hence the urgency to deliver as many of their 1,500 leaflets as possible, which all had the date printed on.
Chris joined Louise and Richard in zigzagging around many streets, some of which has unusual layouts. There were plenty of large dogs to avoid and a whole lot more steps taken.
Big Local Gateshead is one of 150 Big Locals founded in 2012 all over the UK to help residents make a difference to the area they live in. Big Local Gateshead operates in Teams and the racecourse estate in Bensham, and their governing body is made up of people who live or work in that area. They run a community space on Derwentwater Road, an allotment on Bensham Bank, and activities all across the area.
