Gateway Community Kitchen and Hub re-launch WITHERNSEA based Gateway are officially opening their Community Kitchen (Gateway Gourmet) at 10am on Monday, March 7. At the same time they are also re-launching the Community Care Hub after redecoration and refit. The Gateway Community Care Hub and Community Kitchen is located at 104 Queen Street in Withernsea. The Hub has been established for the last two years helping local people in Withernsea and the surrounding areas. A spokesperson for the group said: “Our mission is to benefit local people within our area (Yorkshire) who are struggling with poverty in all its forms: financial, mental, spiritual, loneliness and despair. We aim to help people have a better quality of life, one that's stable and meaningful. We work with, support and promote other charities and organisations that share our objectives.” The Hub initially opened two years earlier on Saturday March 7, 2020 and operated for two weeks before the Covid-19 pandemic hit. The Gateway immediately turned the hub into an emergency response centre, offering food parcels, welfare checks on the elderly and vulnerable and prescription pickups. The spokesperson added: “We sourced
white goods for families and people in need, we collected and went shopping for those that where self isolating at home.” Since restrictions have eased they now operate an open door policy where they provide a safe, relaxing environment for people to come and have a hot drink and a chat. Their aims are to be an ear to listen, a friendly face, simply talking and befriending others. They are still offering all the support which they gave in the lockdowns and with secured funding they are expanding their services. Thanks to funding from Yorkshire based Betty & Taylors they now have a fully fitted community kitchen in what used to be their back store room. The purpose of the kitchen is to demonstrate (batch) cooking and healthy eating to local residents. Withernsea experiences a high level of poverty with on average one in three children living in poverty as defined by National Indicator 116. Poor diet and associated health issues are endemic in the community.

EAST Riding of Yorkshire Council took the decision to postpone Withernsea FEASTival, which was planned to go ahead in Valley Gardens on the weekend of February 19 and 20. This decision was taken due to concerns around the safety of setting up the
stalls on Friday afternoon and packing down on Sunday evening, when wind gusts were forecast to reach 64mph. These conditions would have prohibited a safe set-up of the event. A spokesperson for East Riding Council said: “We will take the opportunity to learn from events in other

locations and maximise the economic uplift for Withernsea that this event will bring later in 2022.” The council is now working with The Market Square Group to identify the best possible date for rescheduling this event which they are hoping to announce in early March.
