Hexham Branch

Hexham Branch has about 700 members and supporters covering Corbridge, Hexham, Haydon Bridge and Allendale and all the villages in between. Currently we are supporting Allendale and Haydon Bridge members who want to set up their own local groups.

Every other branch meeting is a business meeting and the alternate meetings include activities such as political discussions, films, fundraisers and quizzes. Meetings are held on the third Thursday of each month at Hexham Community Centre at 7.30pm.

The branch runs regular street stalls, leaflets and canvasses in Hexham and elsewhere and is involved in numerous campaigns.

Please get in touch if you would like to join us in our fight against the Tories, locally and nationally.
