Northumberland Congress - Potential British Venue!

[Lara Barnes]

The Northunberland Congress takes place at the Parks Leisure Centre on 24-26 September.

This is a potential venue for future British Championships so why not come along and check out the venue and the area?

The venue is easily reached by a short Metro ride from Newcastle Central Station or by road, just off the A19 (loads of free parking). There is lots of accommodation in the area. You can stay in Newcastle or in the seaside area of Whitley Bay, Cullercoats and Tynemouth as well as North Shields.

The playing hall (Pines) would be one of the breakout rooms if the British does come here. Another potential venue in the area is the Spanish City also known as the Dome. (Made famous in the Dire Straights song 'Tunnel of Love')
