A new drop-in community hub will launch in Bridlington to provide residents with free face-to-face advice on housing, health, and employment.
Vital support covering housing, employment, and health will become more accessible for Bridlington residents this summer.
A new Community Hub pilot project is set to launch in August, providing a central location for locals to find information and assistance.
The drop-in centre will operate out of the Bridlington Town Council Office, offering face-to-face guidance on a variety of everyday challenges.
Organisers have structured the pilot to run every Monday afternoon, beginning on the third of August and concluding on the fourteenth of September.
The sessions will take place between 1pm and 3pm, with the exception of the thirty-first of August, when the hub will be closed for the bank holiday.
Residents will not need to book an appointment in advance, as the service operates entirely on a walk-in basis.
A broad spectrum of services will be available under one roof, designed to address multiple facets of community life.
Professionals will be on hand to offer money advice, alongside support for employment and skills development.
Those seeking help with personal welfare will find resources for health and wellbeing, as well as dedicated addiction support.
The hub will also address housing concerns and community safety issues, while providing general signposting to various community activities.
This new initiative forms a key part of the ongoing Clear, Hold, Build programme currently operating within Bridlington.
The wider programme brings different agencies together in a partnership approach to tackle crime and reduce anti-social behaviour across the town.
Through this collaborative effort, the scheme aims to support local neighbourhoods and create lasting, positive improvements for the people who live there.
Project leaders state that the Community Hub represents the next stage of this work, strengthening community connections by making local services highly visible and easy to reach.
Councillor Lyn Healing, East Riding of Yorkshire Council Cabinet Member for Communities and Public Protection, said:
"We’re dedicated to supporting stronger and more resilient communities, and the community hub is a practical way of giving residents direct access to support and advice. This pilot is about making it easier for residents to access services, face-to-face, and ensuring that services are visible and responsive to local needs."
