Cumbria Waste Group carried out a community project with Age Concern Tyneside South. The project involved clearing an overgrown allotment, trimming it back to a blank canvas and the removal and recycling of over 1 tonne of green waste, brick/rubble and wood.

Brian Williams, Commercial Director of Cumbria Waste Group said:

“We are delighted to be working in partnership with Age Concern in creating an environment for the local community of South Tyneside to enjoy being outdoors, which as we all know, is important for people’s wellbeing and mental health.  We’re looking forward to helping Age Concern in delivering this project and working more broadly with Gateshead and South Tyneside Council’s with other community projects”
