    This is the link to find our questionnaire/survey.

    We had a good response from visitors to our Victorian Christmas Market event, but the survey is open until 29th February.

    You don't have to live in North Shields, or even North Tyneside to give us your opinion. We're asking 'Would you VISIT a heritage centre at North Shields?'

    Please have a look - we'd like to know what you think - a you could win a prize!
