A new £34m health and wellbeing hub bringing GP, mental health
and family services together will be built in Cardiff.
The Park View Health and Wellbeing Hub in Ely will be developed
by Cardiff and Vale University Health Board and will serve
residents across the Caerau and Ely areas.
Construction is expected to begin in June and the centre is
expected to open in January 2028.
It will bring together health, social care and community services
under one roof, including GP and primary care services,
outpatient clinics, mental health and neurodiversity support,
early intervention and family wellbeing services, and falls
prevention support for older people.
Cabinet Secretary for Health and Social Care 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 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.”

Cardiff Council Cabinet Member for Adult Services, Cllr Leonora
Thomson, said: “This new Health and Wellbeing Hub will
significantly strengthen the support available to residents in
Ely and Caerau. By bringing health, social care and community
services together in one place, we can offer people earlier help,
better‑coordinated care and a much more seamless experience. It's
an important step in improving outcomes for local families and
ensuring everyone can access the right services when they need
them, close to home.”
