Half the street free to have people over the other half ‘locked down’ ⛔️ Wow was that a baffling time… When rules were based on boundaries. It’s not often people see these invisible borders. Whilst they may have then, it’s a time many are keen to forget. So if you’re in the North (officially or not) let’s welcome visitors from across borders. Encourage them even. Be part of something bigger. You know it makes sense… EnglandsNorth.com

We love the warmth of Northerners and earlier this week was no exception. It was great to head up to The Alnwick Garden, hearing about some of the great work at Grow Business Club. Sharing our passion for England's North through some Lego Serious Play, meeting some fabulous new people and gifting some of our North East wrapping paper (which should come in handy in the next week or so!) were all highlights. Thanks to Lauren for the invite. It was an absolute pleasure 🌱

I want your joy Not to steal it, or bottle it, but to share it. Let us hear the moments you've had across England's North that made it into your memories greatest hits - The awe inspiring moment you witnessed the Northern Lights dance over an iconic landmark - The joyful shriek you let out when you saw a whale crash out of the North Sea - The peace you felt sat on top of a fell as the mist gathered like soup in a bowl in the valley below - The quickening of your pulse when you witnessed The Verve play Haigh Hall Because I may be England's North, but you are too. And our places are nothing without the people. #Stories #Joy #NorthOfEngland #Share
