This is Newcastle Eldon Square back in the 70’s and throughout the 1970’s before I was born. This is what it was like and what it use to look like back then years before I was born. It is a lot different to how it is now and how it looks like now.

I love having these Seal Bars with my packed lunch at NTDF now and again I think they are really nice. Seal Bars are similar to Penguin chocolate bars and the same size as penguin bars to they are just like them and taste like them to they are also like the new version of chocolate penguin bars.

This is a Scarecrow in the back garden at Marden Bridge First School I think it looks really good I got this picture from Google. I have never noticed The Scarecrow in the garden at Marden Bridge School before so thought I would blog about it and thought it would be very interesting to blog about on here.

Over the last 12 years, The Twisting Ducks have built a community in the North East for people with learning disabilities and autism to explore and celebrate their creative talents, and to develop art that represents their lived experiences.

The approaches we use are diverse and innovative in order to meet the needs of those who participate and those who collaborate with us.

Our projects have led to increased wellbeing for individuals and a stronger collective voice through the production of theatre and film that raises awareness about important disability issues, and that promotes equality and inclusion for all.

The Twisting Ducks Theatre Company was developed by a group of adults with learning disabilities who shared a passion for performing and a desire to create original work that was representative of their lives and the issues most important to them

“When we perform people sit up and listen to what we have to say. People take on board what we’re saying; this makes me feel respected.”

(Marc, Twisting Ducks member)

We have carried forward our mission of changing lives through theatre by removing barriers to participation and creating accessible opportunities in the community for everyone to explore and develop their creative talents.
