“Newcastle is undergoing a renaissance, with coordinated public and private sector investment at an all-time high. NE1 plays an important role in helping shape the strategic direction of the city. This, combined with a focus on the day-to-day experience of those who live in, work in, and visit Newcastle, is of critical importance to the city's ongoing success. That is why we will be voting yes for another five-year term.”

John Edgar, Chief Executive

“Having recently invested in our business in the area it is hugely encouraging to see NE1’s ambition for the Quayside. It is the jewel in the city’s crown, and it is worthy of the attention given to planning for the future, especially in light of the significant level of investment coming forward on both banks of the Tyne.”

Rhys McKinnell

Pub Culture

“Newcastle has a well-earned reputation as a fantastic host city for national and international events, and NE1 is a key element of this. Their support for the Rugby League World Cup’s opening game and fan village was significant and helped deliver an outstanding experience. Success breeds success, and this puts Newcastle in a fantastic position when bidding for future major events.”

“NE1’s resource on the ground in the city centre is a huge asset for our store, and others across the city. Knowing we can rely on the Street Rangers and Clean Team to assist at short notice is invaluable, and the team themselves are a credit to the company, relentlessly cheerful and helpful, as well as passionate about what they do and the city itself.”
