North Tyneside Council and NewRiver, the new owners of The Forum Shopping Centre in Wallsend have announced today that they have signed a Memorandum of Understanding to work together on the regeneration of Wallsend town centre.

Alan Lockhart, Executive Property Director of NewRiver said, “We are very pleased that we have quickly established a co-ordinated approach with the Council. The Memorandum means that we can work jointly on a programme to make the regeneration of Wallsend a reality. There is a shared desire between the public and private sectors to drive forward the delivery of a better town centre.”

Linda Arkley, Elected Mayor of North Tyneside said, “The Memorandum sets out a positive basis for progress and we are committed to the early implementation of improvements to the town centre which will benefit residents and traders. There is a lot of work to be done, but our joint working aims to drive forward the regeneration that everybody wants.”

A special meeting of the Wallsend Area Forum has been organised for Tuesday 22nd March at The Forum Shopping Centre at 6.30pm where NewRiver will make a presentation about their initial ideas for the redevelopment of The Forum along with planned refurbishment works.
