Leader of Ashington Town Council, Cllr John Tully expressed congratulations and pride on the achievements of Cllr Michelle Brannigan who has been awarded a scholarship as part of Santander Universities Scholarship Programme.
The programme is aimed at breaking down barriers for current students who are most likely to face challenges when attending higher education. The initiative provides funding to support students through to graduation, £10,000 per year, alongside training opportunities to develop their potential. There are 100 scholarships available to help students build brighter futures, and Cllr Michelle Brannigan was successful out of 3,500 applicants.
Ashington Town Council has responsibility for all matters relating to the provision of litter bins. Northumberland County Council remain responsible for emptying bins across the town.
The Town Council has a programme of replacing ageing litter bins which are beyond repair, as well as providing new litter bins at new locations. We are aware that we are at capacity with litter bins in Ashington, and we are looking at litter bin use more strategically. Often a litter bin is not the answer and behavioural changes need to be encouraged.
Replacement litter bins will be considered in order of priority over the coming years. New litter bin requests will be received and considered in consultation with Northumberland Council.
To report a problem with a litter bin, or to make a request for a new litter bin, please Contact Us.
