A great example of a long unloved site being repurposed to serve as much needed housing. The derelict commercial properties on fifth street could be a prime space for something similar 👀

New social rent housing will be built on the site of a former County Durham school.

We tested the setup for the premiere this week.

Seeing Horden’s history up on the big screen gave us a little glimpse of what the night will feel like.

Strength in Numbers is a film made from the voices of residents in the Numbered Streets, telling the story of homes, neighbours, history and the fight for a fair deal.

Join us for the premiere:

Friday 19 June, 7pm
St Mary’s Church, Horden
Free entry. Everyone welcome.

Have you marked yourself as going yet? Help us fill St Mary’s and invite someone along.

Two more resident stories will be shared at the Strength in Numbers premiere.

We’ll be showing two short interviews with Horden residents, filmed by Lonely Tower Film & Mediar, as part of the evening.

More voices from the Numbered Streets. More stories about home, memory and community.

Join us at St Mary’s Church, Horden, on Friday 19 June at 7pm.
