The new regional secretary for the TUC has called for a universal living wage across the North East and Cumbria.
Beth Farhat, 33, replaced Kevin Rowan as the senior representative for the region.
The mum-of-three said: "One of the challenges for me will be working with the local authority leaders to convince them to push for a living wage.
"If people are paid well, they will be able to survive better and ultimately it will stimulate the economy.
"We need to see more growth and more signs of improvement in the short-term."
