The launch, held on Friday 6 November at 61 Bridge Street, marked an exciting milestone for Inspire Education Group (IEG), Citizen Hub Network and Project Abundance, who have worked collaboratively to bring the initiative to Peterborough.
Throughout the day, visitors were invited to explore the space, meet local organisations and share their ideas about what they would like to see available in their community.
A number of young people also dropped in to learn more about The BRDG and the opportunities available to support their next steps into education, training and employment.
The opening brought together representatives from businesses, local authorities and community organisations, with partners expressing their commitment to supporting the initiative as it develops.
As an anchor partner, IEG has provided the city-centre space at The BRDG, helping create a welcoming environment where residents can connect with others and access opportunities without appointments or eligibility requirements.
Citizen Hub Peterborough will now begin six months of community listening and engagement, giving local people the opportunity to shape the activities, services and support offered.
The initiative reflects IEG's Be Exceptional 2030 strategy and its commitment to empowering communities, widening participation and strengthening partnerships that create opportunities for local people.
