Story
Newcastle City Council has decided to axe almost every school crossing warden in Newcastle to save money. (Pictured here is Jim, who has looked after children at Broadway East for nearly 15 years, with Robin Ashby and John Docherty of Gosforth Traffic)
Parents and local people are outraged that their children may be in danger when they are walking to school.
Newcastle City Council say they'll restore the service for two years if the community raises £10,000 (the Council will recruit, train, do health and safety, insure and equip the warden)
Gosforth Traffic also has a crowdfunding site on JustGiving - please make any contribution on that site rather than this
.
