Another first for JesmondLocal… the JesmondLocal podcast, hosted by Chris Hay, with interviews by Emma Humphreys and Lauren Bradley, and mixed and produced by Lynsey Sherriff and Anastasia Tscheprassow.

In this first podcast, we talk to some of the organisers and perfomers taking part in this month’s Jesmond Community Festival. You’ll hear interviews with town crier Marjorie Dodds, Lord Mayor Michael Cookson, poi performers Ellouise Hempstead and Maya Esposito of Etrois and Jesmond Community Forum’s Chris Clarke, rounded off by a track from the Stephen Richardson Band who are playing a festival gig this weekend.
