about
Tees and Cake
PLAN INTERNATIONAL UK SAID THAT MIDDLESBROUGH IS THE WORST PLACE TO LIVE AS A GIRL. TO THAT, WE SAY, "SOD OFF!"
Tees and Cake is the news website designed to tackle such claims and show that there is plenty on offer for women and girls in the town.
With a focus on news surrounding business, arts and entertainment, this website aims to be an inspiring and inclusive space that will uplift the women of Middlesbrough.

MASTERS STUDENT, BLOGGER AND FEMINIST.
Tees and Cake is Olivia's brainchild. After following the aftermath of the Plan International comment, and the ongoing efforts of causes like #MeToo, she realised that there was a gap for such a news site in the area.
"I want to put my love for the town into the website, as well as my belief in the women that live there. There is so much more for us here than people think and I want to show that through this site's content."
