Originally broadcast on Resonance Extra as Tyneside Sounds Society #7 The Ashington Mix - Sunday 26th November 2017.

Ashington is in the North East of England with a population of roughly 27,000 . It’s a former mining town and was once one of the largest colliery sites in Europe. Woodhorn Museum is based on the site of the former Woodhorn Colliery.

We were invited by Woodhorn Museum to work with the young people at the YMCA group based in Ashington town centre and help connect the museum to the different communities and cultures in Ashington and South East Northumberland.

The Ashington Mix is a fun and energetic composite of all the mixes, interviews and sounds they made.
