📢 🚨Important update 🚨 📢

**Our Summer Sponsored Cycle Event, originally planned for Thursday 27th August, is being postponed due to unforeseen circumstances**

We know a lot of you were looking forward to getting on the bikes, cheering from the sidelines, and enjoying the fairground rides and giant inflatables! We’re sorry for the disappointment – we’re not cancelling, just rearranging. We’re aiming for a new date in September and will share it here as soon as it’s confirmed.

If you’ve already signed up as a rider or volunteer, your spot is still safe – no need to do anything for now. Thank you for your patience and for continuing to support Red Sky, Denvah’s Diary, and Cheesy Waffles. 💛

More details to follow soon 🚲

🚨 Bernicia residents 🚨 Please read carefully before attending the upcoming skip day

Skip Day Tips (Sherburn Road Bernicia Residents only)



👉🏻Sort as you go — separate general waste from recyclables where you can.



👉🏻Don’t overload — keep rubbish below the rim; overfilled skips are unsafe and can spill.



👉🏻Moving items - you need to move your own items to the skips, please ask friends, family, and neighbours to help you.



👉🏻 No hazardous items — no paint, chemicals, gas canisters, tyres, batteries, or electricals.



👉🏻 Break down bulky items — flatten boxes, dismantle furniture to save space.



👉🏻 Wear gloves and suitable footwear
