The Shiremoor & District Children’s Treat is an annual event which has been a local tradition for over 100 years.

 

On the first Saturday of July each year local schools and community groups are led by marching bands along traditional routes to the ‘Treat Field’ where a programme of sports, competitions, entertainment and displays take place throughout the day.

 

'The Treat' is organised and fundraised for by a committee of local people. Throughout the year the committee work hard to organise fundraising events such as raffles, pie&pea suppers, bingo nights, beetle drives and fairs to ensure the tradition can still go ahead each year.  

 

We are also very fortunate and grateful to receive the support of local sponsors.
