New community hub opens at Barking & Dagenham College

Cllr Worby cuts the ribbon at the opening of the ‘Eastbrook and Rush Green Community Hub’ with Natalie Davison.

A new community hub has opened at Barking & Dagenham College.

Barking and Dagenham Council opened and celebrated the launch of the ‘Eastbrook and Rush Green Community Hub’ on Wednesday, 15 May in a ribbon cutting event.

The new hub provides access to Borough services, information and advice on a range of matters for community residents.

The booth will have an information, advice and guidance tool that residents can use to directly access these services and receive help and support.

Special guests, councillors and members of the community were among those who attended the launch last week.

Cllr Maureen Worby, Cabinet Member for Health and Social Care Integration cut the ribbon at the event held in the college’s Learning Resources Centre.

Cllr Worby said: “I am so pleased to open Eastbrook and Rush Green Community Hub in partnership with the college which is the 12th hub now open in the borough.

“The new hub at the college’s Rush Green Campus will mean that residents in Eastbrook can conveniently access council services alongside the help and support they need in their local area, rather than having to travel to the Town Hall.

“When we first conceived the idea of Community Hubs, Eastbrook and Rush Green was one of the hubs I was most excited about opening. It encapsulates our whole vision around the hubs in making council services more accessible to residents by placing them in locations that serve as the heart of the local community.”

Natalie Davison, Principal and CEO Barking & Dagenham College added: “We are delighted to partner with the council on this new community hub which will provide free help and valuable support on a range of issues. Over the coming months, we look forward to welcoming more members of our community into the College.”

The Community Hub at the College’s Rush Green Campus is now open Monday, Wednesday and Friday 10am to 3pm.

Residents can access information, advice, guidance and support with jobs, training, housing, money management, health & wellbeing, and general council services.
