Goodwin Services

Goodwin Development Trust delivers services based around 4 key priority areas as well as our business portfolio. These are:

• Health & Wellbeing
• Children & Young People
• Enterprise, Employment & Training
• Safer & Stronger Communities
• Goodwin Business Portfolio

We work with residents and partners from the public and voluntary sectors to tackle the underlying causes of community and social problems, address the issues faced by residents, fill identified service gaps and try to improve the quality of life for those living in Hull.

Each key priority area is headed by a member of the Senior Management Team who is supported by the Projects Managers. This approach ensures that services are co-ordinated and joined up so that local residents complex needs are identified and met. It also ensures that residents receive all of the information to access the essential services they need.

Delivery of all of Goodwin's services are monitored and assessed on a regular basis to ensure that both our own and funders targets are met and that contribution to the Local Area Agreements are measured. Assessment also ensures that service gaps are identified.

Goodwin aims to sustain the activities in the key areas through  'community asset base development'. New build developments like The Octagon and Fenchurch Street Centre and the refurbishment of old or disused buildings to provide facilities for the community such as The Goodwin Centre, The Hooper Buliding and the Hull Community Warden Shops can not only improve the services available on peoples doorsteps, but also achieve financial sustainability for Goodwin to enable them to provide for future community needs. A number of developed businesses also generate income for Goodwin aiming towards full sustainibility.

The properties that are owned by Goodwin are used for some of the following activities;

Children's Centres and nurseries, resource facilities for the community, community health and recreation facilities, small business incubation space, conferencing and training facilities, managed office space and public access buildings. For more details of the Goodwin Services in the key areas please select a menu option on the left.
