The town of Ashington is calling on all residents to show their love for their community by reducing waste, reusing items, and recycling properly.
Recent figures show fly-tipping is on the rise, with a whopping 115 tonnes of illegally dumped rubbish spread over nearly 2,000 incidents in the last financial year ☹️ Not to mention an astounding 326 tonnes of general litter in public bins and found littering our streets, despite the tireless efforts of volunteers and the NCC Local Services Team who litter pick. It’s hard to imagine that amount of rubbish - we hope our infographic below helps.

About Us
Cycling4Everyone (North East) limited, is a social enterprise operating as a cycle training provider and active travel advocate aiming to promote and support the increase of safe cycling through Bikeability cycle training (the new cycling proficiency test), bike repairs and teaching cyclists to fix their bikes - keeping cyclists’ bikes safe and bikes in good order. Registering for Companies House in 2019, C4E became a going concern through the Hirst Park Project in 2022.
Background to the Ashington Cycle Hub
During 2020/21 ‘Cycle With Jan’ (Jan Chisholm - C4E director and founder) ran a number of cycle training courses for local residents (particularly for asylum seekers and job seekers). This activity was initially funded by Northumberland County Council and Northumberland County of Sanctuary. Both funders recognised the need and potential for a cycle maintenance service, cycling training and development in Ashington - particularly the Hirst Park area.
