2025 is almost here, and we’re kicking off the new year with a fresh issue packed with feel-good stories, exciting updates, and heaps of community spirit.
We’re buzzing to introduce a brand-new section that celebrates the incredible volunteers who keep I Love North Shields ticking. These legends are the reason each issue feels so special, and we can’t wait for you to get to know them better.
Also, meet Alex Wright (Woeman), our new monthly writer! Alex brings a fresh take on community and well-being, and their insights are sure to brighten your month.
In this issue, we’re shining a light on Rowland Lishman, a local legend whose kindness has left a legacy that still ripples through North Shields today.
You’ll also get to dive into Pete Robinson’s breathtaking 10-year journey photographing the heart and soul of our fishing community.
And if you think adventure has an age limit, think again—Henry Whitfield, in his 70s, recently took on a solo trek to the Himalayas. Talk about inspiration!
This year is shaping up to be one to remember. Join us as we celebrate the people, stories, and history that make North Shields the place we all love. Here’s to a 2025 full of possibilities and pride in our amazing community!
