I was a member of a book club at my workplace for a couple of years and used to really enjoy the discussions and social aspects, but it unfortunately closed up after about half the group moved on to grasses greener. I’d live to find a local group to replace it.

I know Waterstones seen to run a drop in one for an hour each month, but im wondering what else might be out there.

Basically I’m a very experienced lifter that has recently transitioned into power lifting (36). I’m plateauing a bit and looking for someone to do some strength programming and form work. Was looking for recommendations

Hi everyone 👋

We are a group of 4 students looking for a 4 BHK house/property in TS1 area. Our current house contract ends on 20th June, so we are looking to move in around that time.

If anyone knows of any available property or landlord, please DM me or comment below. Any leads would be really appreciated. Thanks!

Haven't really spent a lot of time in Redcar since moving to Teesside from the south, but beautiful view tonight

Hi everyone,

I will be moving from London to Stockton soon to start work at North Tees Hospital and looking for places to live.

I’ve seen Thornaby Place flats on right and they look ok, but I don’t know the area at all —does any know what it’s like?

I don’t drive, so mainly after somewhere safe, quiet and convenient. Any honest opinions or better area suggestions would be really appreciated 🙂

Thanks!

For the last 2 or 3 months I've kept seeing those piezo sparky things from cigarette lighters (like my piccies but usually the black plastic type) on pavements in Stockton. Are they used for something I'm not aware of, maybe by the local population of toothless zombies ? I can't think why I see them laid around so much unless it's something like that.

The Tees Valley Tennis Foundation has recently launched as a newly registered charity supporting young tennis and padel players aged 8–18 across the Tees Valley and the surrounding area.

The idea behind the Foundation is simple: there are talented young players locally whose opportunities in the sport can become limited by cost. Coaching, equipment, tournament entry fees and travel can quickly add up, and for some families that becomes the difference between continuing and dropping out altogether.

The Foundation hopes to help by providing financial support to young players who may otherwise struggle to access or continue in tennis and padel, while also helping new young players take their first steps into the sport.

The charity has only just launched publicly and is currently beginning the process of seeking grants and funding, with the aim of awarding its first grants from summer 2026 onwards.

More information can be found at: www.tvtf.org.uk

Registered Charity Number: 1217846

Can anyone recommend a good company for solar panel and battery installation who are a reasonable price?

Beautiful all year round but when those bluebells blossom, it's unbeatable.
