Transporter Bridge Christmas Card is from an original design by North East artist Emily Ward. Each pack contains 6 Christmas cards of the iconic Transporter Bridge.
The Transporter Bridge
has been an iconic landmark on the River Tees since its opening in 1911. This beautifully maintained bridge is one of only two still operating in the UK. Middlesbrough’s famous bridge was painted red when it first opened and was changed to blue in 1961. Emily captures these colours just right.
Fostering Under Newcastle
Emily is supporting the charity Fostering Under Newcastle. In lieu of the closure of the North East Homeless Charity, all monies raised will be donated instead to Fostering Under Newcastle.
Fostering Under Newcastle, FUN, is a voluntary organisation and a registered charity. We have a dedicated group of volunteers who have formed a committee and throughout the year we organise events and activities for Newcastle Carers and for the children they care for. FUN is run by a group of Foster Carers for Foster Carers. The clue to what we strive and hope to achieve is in our title, FUN!
