The cast of the BBC show were in the town on Thursday as work on the project at the Cherry Tree Community Centre was completed.

In just over a week, a new youth hub has been delivered at the centre after hundreds of volunteers from in and around Beverley gave up their time to help with the project and make a difference to the community.

Fiona Rainforth, from Cherry Tree, told Hull Live: “I can’t believe after all this time we've finally got a youth club and that they've built it for us in just eight days!

“For our young people it means they've got the thing we always wanted, a safe space. We've been working out of a gazebo and out of my car and in the winter it’s just dire.”
