The Hinge Centre in Bridlington is a satellite project of its main charity in Goole and is based within the Havenfield Council estate which has 560 properties and approximately 4,000 residents. 

  

The Bridlington centre was set up in response to requests from within the second largest council estate within the town through community consultation as a means to address the high levels of deprivation, employment, basic life skills and education in order to improve and establish a community facility, increase community cohesion and improve the quality of lives of its residents.

 

Although our primary objects for our centre in Goole are focused around young people the centre in Bridlington has a much broader remit and provides support to anyone who finds themselves in crisis or with issues they are unable to deal with due to isolation and exclusion from main stream statutory service provision.

 

 

Our main service provision is based on providing support, advice, independent living skills, living on a budget and financial and numeracy skills training to the following groups within the estate:

 

  • The elderly

  • The retired

  • Lone parents

  • The unemployed

  • People on low income and benefits

  • Young people

 

The centre also has a commitment to establish formal partnerships within the town and is currently working with West Hill Community Services Limited who are based on the West Hill Estate in order to maximise project and service delivery within the two estates thereby increasing the profile of both organisations as key agencies to assist the residents of both the Havenfield and West Hill estates.
