Her City Walk in Newcastle

Join us for a guided city walk around Newcastle city centre focused on women and girls’ safety, using Her City guidance to explore how urban spaces are experienced. Together, we’ll identify areas that feel unsafe, overlooked, or in need of improvement, and highlight opportunities for more inclusive design.

Following the walk, we’ll host a feedback discussion to share insights and ideas, before wrapping up with informal networking and drinks. This is a great opportunity to contribute to shaping a safer, more inclusive city while connecting with others passionate about urban design.
