Dogs, dips and doing your bit for charity. We have it all in a look back to scenes from South Tyneside which happened a decade ago.

It is hard to believe that 10 years have passed since these photos were taken.

But every one of them comes from 2012 including scenes of runners and walkers tackling the Sport Relief run at The Leas.

We have a reminder of the pancake race in King Street, a retirement from the Early Excellence Centre and a fashion show at the Customs House.

Can you spot someone you know? Take a look and then get in touch to tell us more.
