Alternative Route for Teddies
This year’s Teddy Bear Trail includes two options. This is the Red Trail, which passes Reid Park Road, Holly Avenue and Highbury, starting and finishing at Jesmond Library, where more information is displayed.
Teddies reach High West Jesmond
For the first time this year’s Blue Teddy Bear Trail reaches High West Jesmond! All the teddies may not be in place until 22 May. Full information is available in the window of Jesmond Library where the trail starts.
Plastic Free Awards
Plastic Free Jesmond and Sandyford announced the latest winners of their award scheme at a Jesmond Festival event on 20 May – they were Cake Stories (North Jesmond) and Something Good (South Jesmond). Congratulations!
Trail Routes now available
The routes for this year’s two Teddy Bear Trails are now on display in a window of Jesmond Library, but all the teddies will not be in place until Saturday 22 May, so you will have to be patient for a few more days yet!
