Port of Blyth held its Annual Public Meeting (APM) on 6th May in a hybrid format – in person and online. The Port welcomed all stakeholders including the community of Blyth to hear news of the Port’s performance in 2025 and its exciting plans for the future.
The Port is an independent statutory Trust Port that serves a wide range of stakeholders including the community and as such the Annual Public Meeting forms an important part of the engagement process with all stakeholder groups.
Hosted by the Chair of Commissioners, Catherine Young, more than 105 registered guests joined the meeting, which featured a presentation on the Port’s record operational and financial performance during 2025 from Chief Executive Martin Lawlor, alongside insights into the Port’s ambitious plans for future growth and development with the launch of the Port’s Battleship Wharf Expansion scheme.
The event also included a live Q&A session, giving attendees the opportunity to engage directly with Port leadership and discuss key topics affecting the business and the wider region. Notes of the meeting are available to view here.
The Port’s Annual Review for 2025 has now been published and contains full details of the Port’s financial performance during the year. A PDF version of this document is available to download here.
