Recycling Tip of the Week

The start of another year and at least some improvement in the recycling service offered by our borough council as they continue to bring flats on-stream with the new collection service for plastics and cardboard. Each week we will be posting a "tip of the week", starting off with some fairly obvious strategies but moving on to some of the most inventive recycling done by our councillors, members and supporters. Let your local councillor know of any interesting ways of recycling which you think could be publicised more widely.

Jesmond Library plans backed

Lib Dem parliamentary spokesman for Newcastle East Greg Stone has welcomed plans by North Jesmond Lib Dem councillors to fund disability access improvements to Jesmond Library. The building has not been upgraded since it was built in the 1960s and is now not particularly accessible for people with limited mobility. Lib Dem councillors are proposing a £37,000 improvement programme funded from the local ward budget, and plans of the proposed improvements are on display.
