Camelford is a step closer towards a new local health and wellbeing centre thanks to a 9,000 Awards for All grant from the Big Lottery Fund.
Camelford Community Network, which includes representatives from Camelford Town Council, NHS Kernow, Cornwall Council and local parish councils, has been working to secure and increase local health and dentistry services.
The aim is to create a new health and wellbeing centre that will be able to offer a wider range of health and dentistry services for Camelford’s growing population.
The Awards for All grant will fund a feasibility study to establish the demand for local health services and consider where any new health and wellbeing centre should be located. Working together with the council and other providers seems to me to be a very forward-looking and ambitious plan, which I hope may even light the way to a different way of providing health and social care services in a joined up way, to the benefit of the whole community.”
Dr Dave Farrar, Locality Lead for North Cornwall at NHS Kernow, said: “It’s important that any new health facility in Camelford is sustainable and provides the services people in the area want and need and is in the right location. 9,000 Big Lottery Fund grant first step towards new Camelford health and wellbeing centre
