Orientation, Support, and a Listening Ear at the Schalke Community Store
On June 10, 2026, the citizen's consultation Hand in Hand - Supporting New Immigrants will open its doors at the Schalke Community Store. From 09:00 to 12:00, the service will focus on providing advice, support, and practical orientation for people who are newly arriving in Gelsenkirchen.
A Low-Threshold Meeting Point for Genuine Support
The event is aimed at newcomers seeking help with official procedures, understanding structures, or questions about the education and healthcare systems. Advice in the native language, outreach communication, and regular consultation hours create an atmosphere in which trust can grow and important paths become easier.
Cooperation with Experience and Regional Engagement
The project is responsibly guided by the Workers' Welfare Association District Gelsenkirchen/Bottrop, a provider of social welfare with many years of experience in advice, integration, and community work. In collaboration with partners such as the Gelsenkirchen Job Center and the Employment Agency, a network is created that not only informs but also creates concrete access points. This combination of expertise, proximity, and practicality makes the event experience particularly valuable.
Schalke Community Store as a Vibrant Place in the Neighborhood
The Schalke Community Store is regarded as a neighborhood meeting point in the heart of the community. Here, advice, encounters, and social participation come together. Visitors will experience a calm, welcoming event atmosphere, where questions are welcome and individual life situations are taken seriously. The open structure without prior registration further lowers barriers and makes the appointment particularly accessible.
What Participants Can Expect
The focus will be on orientation, practical help, and connecting to existing support services. This ranges from information about the regulatory system to insights on schools, health, and work, as well as personal support in making first steps in the new environment. Those who drop by on that morning will not experience a classic large event, but rather a precisely organized, human-oriented advisory format with direct added value.
Conclusion: This citizen's consultation offers concrete help, personal communication, and strong social connectivity in the Schalke neighborhood. Anyone who has newly arrived in Gelsenkirchen or is looking for support in daily life will find a reliable point of contact here. A visit is worthwhile for anyone looking not to find orientation alone, but to discover it together.
