Community hubs

Our community hubs bring communities together and provide a place for people to go for help and advice.

Our purpose as an organisation is to give back to local communities. To look for new opportunities which will help local people within our communities.

Any profit we make through our commercial businesses is reinvested back into the organisation to help build new homes and invest further in community initiatives.

Our community hubs bring communities together and provide a place for people to go for help and advice.

Bringing communities together

Viking Resource Centre, Barton

The Viking Centre

The Viking Centre is a community centre and youth club on Fairfield Drive in Barton and opened in 2015.

There is also a cafe which has a 5 star food hygiene rating. If you would like to pop down for an English breakfast, the cafe is open every Thursday 10am to 1pm.

The Viking Centre building is multi use and hosts a range of activities, events, trips and community days, whilst also helping local people with employment support and housing queries on a weekly basis.

The Arc

As part of our £9m investment in Westcliff, Scunthorpe we opened The Arc in May 2018.

Along with a cafe, there are a range of services available for the whole community to access, including a Post Office and Little Owls nursery. There is also support available from our Employment Support Coaches, Youth Mentors, Housing Officers and Humberside Police, and regular events and activities.

The Arc is a place you can come to for support, advice and guidance or to catch up with friends in the cafe or during one of the many activities scheduled each week.

There’s always loads going on, so keep an eye out on the Facebook and Twitter pages for the latest info. You can also visit their website.
