Centre's Mission Statement
Effective Mental Health Support through Life Skills and Opportunities


The Waddington Street Centre offers support and opportunities to people in the North Durham area who experience enduring mental health problems. The Centre provides a wide range of quality services within a welcoming environment.  Waddington Street Centre is an independent, voluntary sector organisation where service users, volunteers and staff work closely together to improve the quality of people's lives, support recovery and self-development and make care in the community a reality.

 A Community Mental Health Resource established in 1981, we have continually evolved to meet the changing needs of people using the Centre.

"What we offer is designed to equip people with the skills needed to choose their own journey back into the world."
Dr. Fred Robinson  Chair of  Board of Directors/Trustees, Waddington Street Centre.
