In my community blog this week I will be focusing on health and wellness.  I’ll be highlighting local health and wellness services as well as fitness opportunities available to help you live your best life.

Funded by the Platten Trust, children across three NCEA Trust Schools in Ashington (Bishops Primary School, Thomas Bewick C of E Primary School and NCEA James Knott C of E Primary School) are engaging in a STEM and history project called ‘Ashington to the Future.’

Back in May 2023, Cambois Rowing Club received a £5,000 grant from Ashington Town Council.

Ashington Town Council originally set a target to plant 1,500 trees in 2022-2023 to combat climate change locally.

As part of its approved budget for 2023/24, Ashington Town Council is delighted to announce the availability of the Small Grant Fund, providing an opportunity for Community Groups and Organisations to secure grants of up to £500.

Are you interested in running for fitness, competition, or just for fun? Check out the Ashington Hirst Running Club! As an affiliated UK Athletics running club, Ashington Hirst Running Club welcomes runners of all skill levels.

Looking to reset and reach your health goals in 2024? Better Health and Dry January has all of the information and tools to help you achieve this!

A big thank you goes out to all you children and families who participated in collecting trail stickers from our local shops.
