Our Health Resource Centre building in the west end

The Centre, which opened in 1996, provides activities and services for local people to keep well, to recover after being ill and also to improve their fitness.The Centre feels different from a clinic or other leisure facility because of the community development principles which underpin all the activities.

The staff are encouraged to see their role as enablers, listening to individuals and responding to their needs. The users can get involved in the day-to-day running of the Centre, through conversations with staff and also more detailed questionnaires, providing feedback, suggestions and new ideas. Check the Evaluation and Monitoring page for more details.
