πŸ† TOP FOUR πŸ†

NEW BUSINESS OF THE YEAR 2025

Last night Laura and Helen attended the Best of Northumberland Awards where Tweed Connections finished in the πŸ† TOP FOUR πŸ† New Businesses in Northumberland in 2025.

Although we didn't win, we are delighted and humbled to have received the recognition which wouldn't have been possible without our fantastic team - Laura, Helen, Lesley, Karen, Stacey, Steph and Cara.

Thank you to the families of our clients for trusting us with their loved ones' care, the ladies at Northern View and everyone who has supported us since we opened in May.

We were part of an outstanding group of new businesses who all could easily have won.

Huge Congratulations to the winner, Blyth based CUB Play Cafe who offer interactive play facilities for children aged 0-6.

And also to our fellow finalists!

The Northumberland Dog Hotel and Spa in Hexham who offer dog boarding, care and play for our four-legged friends.

Fellow Berwick business, WellYou, who offer a range of physical and mental wellbeing treatments including Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Red Light Therapy and Infrared Sauna.

We send massive Congratulations to them and all winners and finalists at the Awards.

A huge Congratulations to Isabel and her team at Northern View on this fantastic recognition of the work they do for the community!

When we approached Northern View in early 2025 with the prospect of renting a room one day a week, they were only too happy to help. 6 months later we now rent with them 5 days a week and the ladies provide a freshly cooked 2 course lunch for us every day!

Congratulations again and thank you from us all!

Last night announced the winner of its Large Business of the Year award: Northern View Berwick on Highcliffe in Spittal.

At a ceremony at Berwick Rotary's meeting at the Kings Arms yesterday evening, Rotary President Michael Gallico presented Isabel Litster, Managing Director of Northern View, with a commemorative certificate.

The inscription reads: β€œIn recognition of the outstanding commitment and enterprise shown in providing service and support to the local community and local economy”.

Isabel said that she "felt hugely humbled" to receive the award. She said that it had been a struggle to make Northern View what it was and she praised the fantastic team she had around her.

Northern View provides a community space aiming at bringing people together where they can feel at home. It provides a base for groups including a dementia group and Berwick Darts Academy, and during colder months provides a warm space for local residents.

It runs entertainment events throughout the year, many in aid of good causes, as well as a pensioners' Christmas lunch. It has function rooms available for hire and has a disabled-accessible bathroom which is available for local people to use whether their disability is short or long-term.

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning,
We will remember them.

At Tweed Connections we offer a combination of group activities and time for our clients to enjoy their own hobbies and interests.

One of the favourites is Jigsaws!

Jigsaws are a great activity for our clients as:

🧩 sorting patterns and shapes helps improve short term memory, dexterity and fine motor control
🧩 they enhance problem solving, strategic thinking and concentration skills
🧩 they can help slow down age related cognitive decline as both left and right side of the brain is used
🧩 they can aid relaxation and the feeling of accomplishment when the puzzle is solved

If you, or a family member, would like to discuss joining us, please do not hesitate to contact us on 07563 716752 or email office@tweedconnections.co.uk
