The Laygate area of South Shields on Tyneside, in the north-east of England, is a diverse community shaped by economic change and migration.
Frederick Street, a once-thriving shopping precinct, is at the heart of the community.
These are the stories of people – Anne, Billy, Dudu, Gordon, Noreen, Omar, Patrick, Shannon, Sheena, Sibil, Val, and Yusef – who live and work on Frederick Street.
They reflect on what the community means to them.
