WELCOME Welcome CON TEN TS 14 ARTISAN OF ART We talk to Lucy Pittaway, the Boro legend’s daughter achieving goals of her own 23 FOOD REVIEW Carole Sanderson Lyndsey McGeary falls for the charm of Chadwicks Welcome to the Spring 2019 issue of Tees Life – Teesside’s lifestyle magazine. T his is the Life! It’s been a whirlwind few months since I joined Tees Life publishers Resolution at the start of the year – with an absolute focus on making this magazine a roaring success. As Resolution’s sales manager, it’s my remit to attract organisations of all sizes to advertise their services, products and events in both Tees Life and its sister publication, Tees Business – with the key focus on this beautiful lifestyle magazine about all that’s best in the Tees region. And anyone with any doubt about the fantastic things going on in our wonderful region need only take a glance through the pages of this issue. From the beautiful artwork of our cover star Lucy Pittaway to the comedy of her fellow Teessider Patrick Monahan, from top restaurants such as Chadwicks Inn Maltby and Tomahawk Steakhouse to Stockton’s hosting of the CityGames. I’ve been delighted to bring Darlington Borough Council on board as key partners in recent weeks, and you’ll see increasing coverage of the many attractions of the town from this issue onwards. I’d love to hear from more local organisations interested in raising their profile through either Tees Life or Tees Business – or indeed via the websites for either magazine. Just get in touch and we can meet up for a cuppa! Otherwise I’m going to be out and about talking to people, businesses and organisations across the region, from Yarm to Norton, Stokesley to Stockton, and Middlesbrough to Wynyard. Be sure to say “Hello!” In the meantime, I hope you enjoy reading the spring issue of Tees Life.
