Newcastle United legend Bob Moncur brought smiles to the faces of elderly sports fans during a trip to the Dunston branch of Sporting Memories. Moncur was invited along to the weekly session at St Nicholas Church Hall, where he shared tales from his time playing and captaining Newcastle, including being part of the team that lifted the Inter-Cities Fairs Cup in 1969.
Sporting Memories is a charity and social enterprise which supports older people with their physical and mental well-being through sports reminiscence and inclusive activities.
Moncur , a big supporter of the charity, also got stuck into the sporting pursuits on offer and joined members for a game of New Age Kurling in a fun but competitive environment.
