We're keen to get your feedback on Council News so we can improve future issues.
In this issue you will find important winter updates about how to recycle right during the festive period, bin collections, how to book an appointment for our Household Waste and Recycling Centres and information about our gritting service.
We continue to invest in Gateshead to ensure that our residents can thrive now and in the future. Housing is a major part of this and we are developing the site of a former school on Dunston Bank, developing family homes on the former Hookergate site at High Spen and redeveloping land around Askew Road, a major gateway into the borough. You can also read about how we are investing in small businesses, our libraries, our Town Centre and our refuse collection vehicles.
Since our last issue there have also been a number of exciting developments across Gateshead. The first newly painted section of the Tyne Bridge has been revealed, our Sister Winifred Laver Promoting Independence Centre was officially opened by Freeman of the Borough, Jill Halfpenny and we've held an event to showcase the support available for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities.
A number of elections have taken place this year and you can find a full list of contact details for your local councillor and your Member of Parliament.
Other features in this issue include how to stay active over the winter months including some amazing walks, using the track at Gateshead International Stadium and opportunities to get involved in gardening, our fantastic Pride in Gateshead festival, our community safety priorities and much more.
