A new dedicated Wellbeing Hub has opened in the heart of Barne Barton offering a wide range of support to the local community.
This complements Colebrook SW’s main Wellbeing Hub in St Budeaux which has been running since 2019. The Hub’s opening was made possible thanks to the continued support of Plymouth City Council and other partners in St Budeaux and Barne Barton.
Councillor Mary Aspinall, Cabinet Member for Health and Adult Social Care at Plymouth City Council, said:
“I’m delighted that we’re able to help facilitate the opening of a dedicated Wellbeing Hub for the community in Barne Barton. It’s the seventh in our brilliant network of hubs across the city, which provide a huge range of support to residents and promote physical and mental wellbeing.
“The new Hub will also provide vital support to people during the cost of living crisis, with a wide range of financial advice available. Helping local people through the current crisis is an absolute priority for us as a council, so I’m really pleased that the residents of Barne Barton can now access these useful services on their doorstep.”
The wellbeing hub offers a space where any member of the community can come and take part in activities or get information and support on a range of issues that affect wellbeing such as mental health, debt management, employment support, benefits advice, physical health and much more.
Locals can drop in and visit the Wellbeing Hub in Barne Barton on a Wednesday between 10am and 12 noon at Miers Close, Barne Barton or at the Wellbeing Café on a Thursday between 10am and 1pm at Shelley Way, St Budeaux.
Alternatively, contact the new Hub on 07890257649 or via email at wellbeinghub@colebrooksw.org
There is a range of activities, services and events at both Wellbeing Hubs based on what the community have asked for. Follow St Budeaux and Barne Barton Wellbeing Hub on Facebook to find out more.
