THE “wonderful people” of Beverley have been praised as a DIY SOS ‘Big Build’ saw a new youth centre created in just eight days.

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.”
