AN event on Teesside to mark International Women's Day has had to be rearranged after a venue was hit by floods.
The Reclaim the Night march will now end at Thornaby Youth Club, Baysdale Road, instead of South Thornaby Community Centre.
The march leaves Thornaby Pavilion tonight at 6.30pm and aims to highlight the dangers facing women on Teesside streets.
Once at Thornaby Youth Club, planned activities remain unchanged with poetry reading, folk singing, supper and a creche until 9pm.
The daytime event at Thornaby Pavilion, from 10am to 3pm, also remains unchanged and includes free use of the squash court with balls and racquets provided, stalls giving tips on aromatherapy and health and beauty and advice on employment and training.
The flood at South Thornaby Community Centre, caused by a cracked drain, means the building will be closed all this week.
