Our Gateshead A voice for Gateshead online

Welcome to Our Gateshead, the voice of Gateshead online. This site has been developed by Gateshead Community Network supported by Gateshead Council. Our Gateshead offers free web pages and training to any community or voluntary organisation in Gateshead. You can use the site to let others know about your work, to promote events or membership or to post photos of your work.
Our Gateshead aims to give community organisations the skills and confidence to update their own web pages. Ongoing training and support is provided by Gateshead Community Network with support from Gateshead Libraries; if your group does not have a computer of it's own your training is delivered in your local library.
Our Gateshead captures the many different activities happening across Gateshead, encouraging more people to get involved.
