Tick Tock nursery at Six Ways to open a branch in the Bells Lane Community Centre with the help of local Councillors

The Sun was shining and there was lots of fun to be had, by all at this year’s Queens Jubilee Celebrations! Aspley community came together to end a year of lockdowns! There was live music, free food and entertainment galore.

Big thanks to Diversify, Education & Communities CIC’s Shanine Fasasi and her band of Volunteers, The Aspley Councillors and Public Health who funded the day.

The Fire & Rescue Service, Nursing Staff and all stallholders and all the talented young people who made the day as good as the weather!


Aspley’s Big Spring Clean Event

A massive big thanks to all the services who work tirelessly to make our streets clean. In particular, to Sue Stevenson who is Nottingham City Home’s Street and Block Champion and Chair of Customer Excellence Panel she was so committed, she insisted on continuing the litter pick in the rain! Also, thank to Evolve CIC and all the services who took part.

If you want to join the Clean Champions click here or phone 0115 8765079 

A final thought. It would be rather nice if people respected their community and didn’t drop litter in the first place. 


Programme for Street Improvement

We have just agreed a £700,000 programme for improving some of the pavements and roads in Aspley.

This is money which is ring fenced for highway work and cannot be spent on anything other - it sounds a lot but given the amount of work needed it is a drop in the ocean, nevertheless welcome. 

Roads on the list are Lindfield, Lindbridge, Eltham, part of Frinton.

Paths - Camborne Drive, possibly Penrith and Redmile, Commodore Gardens. We are also setting money aside for tree work and bin replacement


Aspley’s Day of Action
