The Wellbeing Centre 

We relocated to The Wellbeing Centre on Sharrow Lane in 2017. The facility, a former Surestart, had been empty for some time, so we worked hard to turn the building into a warm and welcoming space for service users and to also provide appropriate working space for staff and visitors.

The Wellbeing Centre is a multi-functional space that can be used for a variety of purposes. We have a suite of counselling rooms that are ideal for small meetings and one-to-one consultation and we also have larger rooms that can be adapted to accommodate a multitude of different activities.

The Future for the Wellbeing Centre - we've only just begun...

We've come a long way since we first got the keys to the building but we're keen to do even more and to develop the rear of the property. Working with local group Arts Catalyst, we're hoping to design an outside area that can be used for social and therapeutic purpose, possibly incorporating eco-therapy and gardening so we can encourage some bio diversity.

Over the last few years we've been lucky enough to get support from local businesses and volunteers from Gripple, Sky, Santander, Nationwide  Royal Bank of Scotland  Marks and Spencer and Engie to  make the area safe and more attractive. We've installed some new raised beds, shrubs, planters and benches which have allowed us to host outdoor events and provided a space for staff to relax, in between sessions.

The help we have received has been truly inspiring BUT there's a lot more to do and its one of the priorities for 2022/23 to make the space more user-friendly.

This is a work in progress and we know it will take time - but we hope it will be worth the wait!
