A North Tyneside firm is set to create new jobs after its silent disco kits were hailed for helping couples save their wedding days in the pandemic.
Silent Disco 4U, based in North Shields, issued more than 4,500 headsets to eager customers in one week alone last year, when the Government pushed back the so-called Freedom Day and extended Covid restrictions.
It is now aiming to capitalise on its first full year of restriction-free trading by doubling staff numbers and increasing equipment levels. The firm has also expanded into a new base.
