Northumbria Day Break is a charity based at Dilston near Corbridge in Northumberland and The Walled Garden, Minsteracres, County Durham. The charity tries to make people more independent, improve confidence and skills of adults with learning disabilities and to help them lead active and rewarding lives in the community. One of the projects is a free community service - collecting paper, bottles and cans from homes, offices and shops in the locality. These items are sorted before being taken to the Recycling Banks. By going regularly to customers the clients are able to enhance their social skills and relationships.
This programme offers a unique opportunity to be active in helping and serving the community whilst giving an awareness of environmental issues.

We are a newly established Trust, incorporated in March 2005. Our remit is to promote environmental conservation and improvement in Alnwick, Blyth Valley, Castle Morpeth and Wansbeck. The Trust has taken on the existing Greening for Growth Team who have a well established reputation for lanscape design, project management and delivery. We aim to build on and further develop the following flagship projects:

• The South East Northumberland Forest Park, designed to increase tree cover around major towns and the A189;
• The A189 Northumberland Parkway, improving the visual impact of this key access route;
• Druridge Bay Tourism, assisting a sympathetic approach to tourism for this nationally acknowledged Heritage Coast;
• Greenstart, which delivers early years education from an environmental perspective;
• New Pathways to Health, which develops the link between the local environment and healthy living through Health Walks and Food Co-ops.
