FUND FOR THE FUTURE
ONLY THE BEST FOR BALLYMENA
the beating heart of ballymena – Woodvale Community Wellbeing Service is based in the centre of Ballymena and we are proud to announce plans to redevelop our building.
We were recently successful in our application to the Community Ownership Fund. A condition of the award, however, is that we must also secure community funding to match the grant. This clearly requires a significant effort throughout the Mid and East Antrim area. Our redevelopment plans have already received fantastic support from many businesses and individuals in Ballymena and beyond, and we are more than confident that we can achieve our goal.
Our service in Ballymena (Woodvale) is located in a two storey end terrace building in Ballymena town centre. However the building has deteriorated signifigantly over the past few years and is now in a poor stage of repair. Without this major refurbishment the building is at risk of closure.
WHO WE SUPPORT
Woodvale has been operating as a day centre for over 50 years providing support for over 100 adults with severe and enduring mental health needs referred from statutory mental health services.
OUR VISION
This project will secure the long-term future and sustainability of our own services and of the wider Community Wellbieng Services in Ballymena through the creation of a newly refurbishment facility which will be open and accessible to many other groups and indiviudlas from the wider community.
