Firstly, we’d like to thank our advertisers. Without your loyal support, we would be unable to survive. Please continue to support your local community newspaper! We’d also like to acknowledge everyone at MT Print in Darlington and thanks also to John Brennan and Tom Stephenson for their services to the paper. Thanks also to Sarah and Vita who have both moved on to pastures new and we wish them both well. We would also like to offer our thanks to Shildon County Councillors, Trish Pemberton and Henry Nicholson for contributing from their Neighbourhood Budget to the grant which allowed us to upgrade our IT equipment earlier in the year. Thanks also to BASH AAP - particularly Sheilah Metcalfe - for helping us complete the application form.
