For each podcast we select a theme and our group create and record fictional pieces for your listening pleasure, for this podcast we have looked at a theme of Make do and Mend

Do you have a hero or heroine you would like to acknowledge? Our group have created this podcast to tell you about theirs. 

In this episode you can hear letters of note, that should have, could have or were written.  

We have looked at more of our local history and have some new tales to tell. We are also joined by Adam Bell from South Shields Museum and Art Gallery to talk about their latest exhibition 'Pushing the Boat Out' looking at the history of Shipbuilding and Ship Repair in South Tyneside. Adam has been collecting Oral Histories from people that worked in the shipyards that will be available to hear at the exhibition, and we have included some of the recordings in the podcast. You can find out more about the exhibition https://southshieldsmuseum.org.uk/whats-on/pushing-the-boat-out-shipbuilding-and-ship-repair-in-south-tyneside

The theme for this month is Food for Thought and our writers have created a real mix for you.

The theme we selected for this podcast was DIY or Disaster, and a couple of our writers have taken on our challenge to produce their pieces that are under one minute long. We also introduce some of the characters we have been working on for the Enchanted Cramlington Project as they get ready for the first Fairy, Monster and Wildlife Trail starting on 29th May 2022 at Northumberlandia 

All of the Enchanted Cramlington characters on the podcast and more can be seen on the Enchanted Cramlington Website http://www.envirostreet.org/enchanted

This episode looks at Romance and Heartbreak. Each month we select a theme for the members of the group to create short audio dramas. We have an ongoing challenge to see if we can produce a piece that is 60 seconds or less, and this month we have a poem for you to hear. 

Our group meets every Wednesday, sometimes virtually, other times in person especially when we have a new project developing. We aim to meet the first Wednesday of the month at Perth Green Community Association in Jarrow. 

If you are interested in getting involved in writing, performing or producing audio drama and podcasts please get in touch.

This month we announce the winners of our Audio Drama writing competition. We also challenged our group to create short pieces, under one minute, more difficult that it seemed, however the pieces they have created tell some great stories.

This month we look at remembrance with some thought provoking pieces.
