Household rubbish from Gateshead, South Tyneside and Sunderland is set to be converted into energy rather than sent to landfill, thanks to new greener plans announced this month.
Dr Helen Paterson, Executive Director of Children’s Services for Sunderland City Council, explains why supporting Sure Start Children’s Centres is high up on the agenda to ensure that children in the city get the best start in life.
Sunderland’s Building Schools for the Future (BSF) vision is to transform teaching and learning by creating 21st Century environments and introducing cutting edge technology to the classroom.
