5. Project description
Provide a short description of the project including strategies, regional challenges, aims and specific project activities.: 

The North East Calendar is a great new way to share gems from our regional film collections with online audiences. Each week, the North East Calendar brings sixty seconds of archive film footage to give visitors to your website a flavour of the people, places, traditions and events that make the North East so special. The North East Calendar can be easily incorporated into any website by means of a simple piece of HTML code, free of charge. So whether it’s a grand opening, a royal visit, or just a fun day out for the family on the beach at Redcar, Tynemouth or Bamburgh, the North East Film Archive have selected a variety of film clips from our collections that online visitors can look back on and enjoy the great memories, every week of the year. The calendar includes footage from around the whole of the North East.
