Did you know?
The Wellspring building houses three separate organisations that are dedicated to providing health and wellbeing services (the GP surgery, the dental practice and us, the Wellspring Healthy Living Centre). The GP surgery and Dental practice, who we work with closely to offer support services for wellbeing, are distinct from our organisation.
