Hundreds of people have been left 'devastated' over plans to close a bingo hall in North Tyneside.
Customers at Buzz Bingo, in Wallsend, were recently informed that a planning application had been filed to North Tyneside Council to change the use of the site and transform the bingo hall into a "non-food discount retailer".
But the news has prompted over 300 objections, with many explaining how much the site is valued by customers and how important it is to many people who rely on the site to socialise.
