Whitley Bay beach, in the North-East of England.
Getting there
The closest big city is Newcastle upon Tyne. From Newcastle, you can get:

Time and date
High tide is ~08:00, low tide is ~14:30. We'll aim to set up at 10:00, after Parkrun finishes, and the incoming tide will determine when we finish.
Access
The event will be entirely outdoors and subject to the weather conditions.
It's a public beach and other people will be free to use it.
There will be an information stand up on the beach prom. Most of the activity will take place on the beach.
We're going to try to arrange for some beach-access wheelchairs to be available on the day.
