Do you remember how the West End used to be?
Would you like to share your stories and hear other people’s?
Built in the West End is a new, relaxed group for men age 50+, exploring the history, skills and stories of our neighbourhood. It’s a chance to look back at Newcastle’s industrial past, talk about how our streets and communities have changed, and create something together that celebrates local history.
What to expect
- Friendly, welcoming sessions
- Time to share your own memories and experiences
- Explore Newcastle’s industrial heritage
- Discover stories from the West End
- Help create a local history display
You don’t need to know anything about history – just bring yourself and your stories.
