Newcastle Airport has named its new charity partner.

The airport announced that True Colours Theatre, a charity that aims to empower children and young people through performing arts, was selected as the new partner after being nominated and voted for by airport employees.

Alice Andreasen, chief sustainability and communications officer at Newcastle Airport, said: "We are delighted to welcome True Colours Theatre as our new charity partner.

"The charity’s commitment to enriching the lives of children and young people and providing them with a safe and happy space where they can build friendships, develop new skills and express themselves is truly inspiring.

"It is a cause that many of our staff hold close to their hearts and one that strongly aligns with our values."

The partnership will see the airport raise funds for the charity through a range of initiatives and give employees the opportunity to volunteer at the theatre on community engagement days.
