Huge congrats to @HummersknottAcd young reporter Olivia Smith on her brilliant @TheNorthernEcho feature about @StTeresas.
I’m doubly proud - both as a trustee of the hospice, and having worked with her and the school newspaper team for the last few years. https://t.co/sC9fQO2FS2

Okay. Twelve Months is done and off to the editor.

More information as I receive it wrt publish dates.

[Chris Barron @thatchrisbarron]

I've now taken on this voluntary role in addition to my day-to-day with the family business, Barron Media.

I was privileged to see the amazing work done by a dedicated team every day, and I’m grateful to have this chance to contribute my media and PR experience to their mission

[Chris Barron @thatchrisbarron]

Thrilled to share that I've joined the board of @StTeresas as a trustee.

I spent seven years with this fantastic charity at the start of my career, and ever since it’s held a special place in my heart.

[Chris Barron @thatchrisbarron]

Great, but I love that the French president said "To be Frank" 😂

🚨BREAKING: In an incredible moment in front of the world, President Macron brutally interrupted a Trump lie, fearlessly fact checking him in real time.

Watch Trump's embarrassed expression.
This is how it's done.

[Chris Barron @thatchrisbarron]

Good. There's no place in our politics for this kind of thuggery, regardless of party.

Great to catch up with the guys from The Viking Boat Co. at #jorvikvikingfestival on Saturday.
Stormbird, the Darlington Viking longship, which they've built together with #armedforces veterans, was displayed all week on Parliament Street.

Animation is such a unique medium for conveying both information and satire, this is brilliant.

[Roman Sheremeta 🇺🇸🇺🇦 @rshereme]

This brilliant cartoon clearly explains Trump’s current position on Ukraine. It is in Ukrainian with English subtitles. Share it with anyone who keeps repeating russian propaganda.

"In this new world where the foreign policy of the most powerful country on Earth has been rapidly reorganised around the fragile ego of a sullen and resentful old man..."

Great to see our aerial drone footage of Rainton Meadows Nature Reserve appear on BBC News yesterday.

Fantastic effort by @durhamwildlife to protect and grow this beautiful North East habitat.

[Chris Barron @thatchrisbarron]

@ThePoke Why is anyone still giving Truss a platform?
She was revealed as utterly incompetent and ignorant in the most public manner possible.

[Chris Barron @thatchrisbarron]

@rilontime @BarronMedia Good, that

[Chris Barron @thatchrisbarron]

Nice evening sat in the pub with the new edition of the award-winning @HummersknottAcd school newspaper 😉

[Chris Barron @thatchrisbarron]

Always the first to correctly insist the collection service is a team effort, David is nevertheless the driving force behind its success. 3/3

[Chris Barron @thatchrisbarron]

plus dedicated supporters including @grnworx , @Enterprise, Charter Self Drive, and Taylor's Butchers & Cafe.
But special thanks go to organiser David Hayward, who has spearheaded this fantastic initiative for the past 14 years. 2/3

[Chris Barron @thatchrisbarron]

A pleasure to once again play a small part in Darlington's annual Christmas Tree Collection Service this past weekend.
Together, we raised vital funds for @StTeresas, thanks to the tremendous efforts of volunteers from @DarlRotary, the amazingHospice staff and volunteer team, 1/3

@BarronMedia Green Cross Crowed

[Chris Barron @thatchrisbarron]

Driving through #Weardale this morning and I just had to pull over and try to snap this sunburst before it vanished!
I think I just about caught it.

[Chris Barron @thatchrisbarron]

Very excited to review Sleeping Beauty at @DarlingtonHipp together with my daughter.
Like most of the world, she's currently obsessed with Wicked and saw the show earlier this year, so I knew the panto cast had a high bar to clear to impress her. Did they manage it? Well, mostly.

[Peter Barron @BarronMedia]

Our resident Panto Experts were last night dispatched to @DarlingtonHipp with orders to review this year's production from @XRoadsPantos.

Find out what eight-year-old Chloë and her dad thought of Sleeping Beauty on the Barron Media blog:
