The community hub is due to open in the new year, the money Will be used over the next five years and amongst other things will help fund a manager for the centre as well as a caretaker.

The new building on Marshall Street is expected to be ready for use in late January or early February.

It sits alongside the new Bridlington Town Council offices which opened this week.

The Community Hub will also be able to provide support for a range of local people and issues including

  • Unemployment
  • Homelessness
  • Veterans
  • Financial issues
  • Legal problems
  • Crime issues
  • Health conditions
  • Social groups
  • Youth activities

Any groups interested in using the centre are encouraged to contact Fiona via email fiona@ervas.org.uk
