We, together with community leaders and local groups across our town, are taking a clear stand on recent events in Ashington.
Over the past few weeks, we have witnessed flags being illegally attached to public assets, divisive protest marches with inflammatory chanting, vandalism of street signs and road markings, and everyday conversations poisoned by hostility. This behaviour does not represent Ashington. We do not support these actions.
These actions are being driven by a small group, not by the town as a whole. These actions spread hatred and unrest. They divide rather than unite. They damage the reputation we have all worked to build.
Ashington Town Council has responsibility for all matters relating to the provision of public seating in the town.
The Town Council's Neighbourhood Services Officer regularly inspects our public seats and carries out repairs and maintenance.
The Town Council has a programme of replacing ageing public seating which is beyond repair as well as providing new seats at new locations.
Requests for new or replacement seats being met in order of priority.
Please note public seating at the Town's strategic parks is provided by Northumberland County Council.
To make a request for a new seat, or to report damage to a seat, please Contact Us.
