IMPORTANT COVID-19 SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT

Please note that all face to face services at the centre are currently suspended.

The safety of our staff, volunteers and service users is our primary concern at this time. Staff continue to work from home where possible, and we are working with our partners across Hampshire to provide essential services and support to the most vulnerable.
