Thousands of homes lost power after Storm Arwen hit the North East over a week ago and many homes are still without power.

And finally, new eco friendly homes will be coming to Newcastle’s West End.

25 houses and flats will be built on the site of the demolished South Benwell School on Buddle Road along with a common house that can be used by the residents.
