Local Information
Below is a list of resources you can browse for more local information:
Contact the NGP Office
If you want to report any issues which need addressing in the open space, roads, footpaths or play parks please contact the NGP Project Office at: https://www.newcastlegreatpark.com/contact-3/
You can attach photos or files to this reporting form, and you will recieve a copy of your submission to your own email address. You may then retain this for your records or forward it as you choose with either the Great Park Action Group or your ward councillor.
Snagging New Homes
Within the first two years snags should be reported to your builder. It is best to do this in writing for a record rather than phone up. Contact details are for Persimmon: www.persimmonhomes.com/north-east/contact-customer-care and for Taylor Wimpey northeastcustomercare@taylorwimpey.com.
After the first two years you have some cover from the warranty provider until the house is ten years old.
Great Park Community Centre
The centre is run by the community for the community through the Great Park Community Centre Association. Any adult living on the Great Park may be a member for a stake of £1. They may then vote at meetings and/or become a trustee. The trustees are all residents who give their time for free. They have employed a management company (Evolution Management) for the day to day running of the centre. Contact the trustees about strategic issues at gpccassociation@gmail.com or the management team for day to day things at info@greatparkcommunitycentre.com
