A major new health and wellbeing centre worth £34m is set to be built in Cardiff, bringing together GP services, mental health support and family wellbeing provision in a single location.
The Park View Health and Wellbeing Hub will be developed in Ely by Cardiff and Vale University Health Board, serving residents across the Ely and Caerau communities. Construction is expected to get under way in June, with the facility due to open in January 2028.
The hub will house a broad range of services including GP and primary care, outpatient clinics, mental health and neurodiversity support, early intervention and family wellbeing programmes, and falls prevention services for older people.
Cabinet Secretary for Health and Social Care Jeremy Miles said: “The hub will help Ely and Caerau residents access a wide range of services in one place, bringing more NHS care closer to people’s homes.
“It will also deliver long-term economic benefits for the area, supporting job creation and economic regeneration during the construction and operation phases.”
Geoff Walsh, Director of Capital, Estates & Facilities at Cardiff and Vale University Health Board, said: “This long-planned scheme is a major milestone for Ely and Caerau. Since the closure of Park View Health Centre, delivering services locally has been challenging and this investment will enable care to be provided closer to home once again.
Bringing services together with the Local Authority Hwb will support a more joined-up approach, while the relocation of Westway Surgery, made possible through Welsh Government Integrated Care Fund Capital Integration and Rebalancing Capital Fund (IRCF), will strengthen primary care provision for the community.”
Cardiff Council’s Cabinet Member for Housing and Communities, Cllr Lee Bridgeman said: “This project is a powerful example of what strong partnership working can achieve. Cardiff Council and Cardiff & Vale University Health Board have a long‑standing commitment to integrating services and making the best use of shared public assets.
“This new Health and Wellbeing Hub is a major step forward in delivering on that vision. By joining and integrating the new facility with our existing Community Hub, we are creating a single, accessible space where residents can benefit from coordinated support, modernised services, and genuinely joined‑up provision at the heart of the community.”
