  • Through the Fireplace...* Hello and a Very Warm Welcome to Members and Supporters to This Third Issue of Our Newsletter, Cupola
    CTYNE & WEAU R Building PrePOLAservation Trust NEWSLETTER Issue 3 WINTER 2018 Through the fireplace...* Hello and a very warm welcome to members and supporters to this third issue of our newsletter, Cupola. As we surge on into 2018 you find us building on our programme of events to involve and entertain you - more on that below. Meantime, victorious in our struggle with dust, we now face a fresh challenge with a railway winding mechanism. On other fronts, we are getting to grips with a relic of Primitive Methodism in Weardale and undertaking urgent works to a terrace of listed buildings in Sunderland. We've welcomed a new member to the team and seen a craftsman become an angel. You really do see it all in the heritage sector. Enjoy reading about it, thank you for your kind support and we look forward to seeing you at a members' event soon. Yours, Martin Hulse, Trust Manager. Back to the Wall Volunteer's Viewpoint This month we hear from Ged Parker, committee member of the Tyne and Wear Heritage Forum. The Forum is an important group member of the Trust, with its own ranks lending valuable, much needed support to Trust activities. The Forum is an alliance of key heritage bodies and individuals active within the North-East of England. At a time of restricted public funding for protection and preservation of heritage, the Forum seeks to make a tangible and significant impact on the regional environment to the benefit of those who live and work here, and businesses which are based here.
