Areas Top Tenders Covers


Top Tenders focuses on North East England, bringing you a weekly email of live tender opportunities across the region.


If the work is based in the North East or includes North East delivery, it belongs in the roundup. That means you will regularly see opportunities from councils, housing associations, the NHS, schools, universities, facilities management providers and major contractors.


Core areas covered


We cover tenders across the main local authority areas, including:

  • Newcastle upon Tyne
  • North Tyneside (including Whitley Bay, Tynemouth and surrounding areas)
  • South Tyneside
  • Gateshead
  • Sunderland
  • Northumberland
  • County Durham
  • Teesside (Middlesbrough, Stockton, Hartlepool, Darlington)

Tyne & Wear


For tradespeople working across the main urban areas, you will often see maintenance, refurbishment and compliance opportunities in and around:

  • Newcastle
  • Gateshead
  • North Tyneside
  • South Tyneside
  • Sunderland

Northumberland


We include opportunities across Northumberland, from coastal towns to rural and market areas. Expect everything from smaller packages to multi-site maintenance contracts.


County Durham


County Durham tenders are regularly included, covering property maintenance, improvement works, schools and public buildings, housing stock and estates.


Teesside


We also include North East opportunities across Teesside, including Middlesbrough, Stockton, Hartlepool and Darlington, where buyers are often looking for regional contractors and specialists.


What “covered” means in practice


You will see opportunities that are:

  • Based at a specific North East site (for example, a school, estate or public building)
  • Split into regional lots that include the North East
  • Frameworks or DPS routes where suppliers can deliver work in North East England
  • Multi-site contracts where at least some delivery is in the region

Looking for work slightly outside the region?


We mainly stick to the North East to keep the email relevant, but you may occasionally see opportunities just over the border when they are clearly suitable for North East firms.
