Welcome from the Leader of East Riding of Yorkshire Council, Councillor Anne Handley
Welcome to our weekly residents' news and updates.
This week we have an update on the redevelopment of East Riding Leisure Goole, which is now entering its final stages. It is fantastic to see the project taking shape, with major progress made across the site ahead of its opening later this year.
We are also celebrating Youth Work Week and recognising the positive impact youth workers have on the lives of young people across the East Riding, helping them to grow in confidence and achieve their potential.
Finally, there are plenty of opportunities to enjoy culture and entertainment locally with East Riding Libraries' new BOOKED! programme. From an intriguing murder mystery and an improvised Shakespeare performance to a comedy club in partnership with Barnstormers Comedy, there is something for everyone to enjoy.

'Good' outcome for East Riding children's services
 A ‘Good’ judgement was given in all four areas of inspection; the impact of leaders on social work practice, the experience and progress of children who need help and protection, the experiences and progress of children in care, and the experiences and progress of care leavers.
Youth Work Week: Where Futures Begin
 This week is Youth Work week and the council, along with partners, is celebrating the life-changing impact of youth work. Youth Work Week celebrates the people and places where young people grow, belong and thrive – with this year’s theme being Where Futures Begin.
