This £10 million project will be situated on Endeavour Wharf, a site of maritime activity since the 1800s, from fishing to boat building and today remains an operational wharf as well as providing car parking facilities.

This project addresses a need to develop a better supply of technical abilities to meet the demand in both developing new skills and recertification.  Additionally, the Hub will also provide accommodation for maritime businesses and service providers to support economy growth and resilience within the local community.

The project gained planning approval in August 2024 and aims to start on site in 2025.
