About the Wilson Wellbeing
What is the Wilson Wellbeing?
The Wilson Wellbeing is an integral part of the new health and wellbeing hub that is planned for The Wilson Hospital in Mitcham. As part of the interim provision, the Wilson Wellbeing Steering Group has developed a bright and modern space where the community can engage in, develop and benefit from a wide range of wellbeing services and activities locally.
The space is now relaunched by the Wilson Wellbeing Steering Group in partnership with Jigsaw4u, a specialist wellbeing support provider already working in the community. There is a schedule of drop-in activities available including coffee mornings, arts and gardening clubs, and mental health support and signposting. Services will be developed ongoing in collaboration with local partners and in response to the needs of residents.
The facility contains various bright and attractive spaces which are available to book and provides a perfect venue for small groups to gather, and for workshops or meetings of organisations delivering wellbeing services and activities for the benefit of East Merton residents. There are 5 meeting rooms appropriate for individual and small group work, a larger public space for groups of up to 15, and use of a beautiful community garden.
Who is the Wilson Wellbeing for?
Anyone residing in, or adjacent to, the East Merton community who has a wellbeing need which could be supported by engagement with services on offer at the Wilson Wellbeing centre.
The comfortable and accessible indoor spaces, and community garden, can be used as an occasional or reoccurring setting for Community groups of all interests and sizes to meet and base their activities.
Rooms can also be booked for use by Organisations delivering wellbeing support to the local community.
Future of Wilson Wellbeing
Wilson Wellbeing will be an integral part of the planned Mitcham Health and Wellbeing Hub, the development of which is being led by the NHS in Merton, alongside other key partners and stakeholders. NHS building projects take time and there is still a long road ahead, but progress is being made to develop an Outline Business Case for approval next year, which will provide a clearer idea on the timeline for building work. The Wilson has recently been identified as the preferred site.
