About the Centre
The Greenwood
Centre is the home of The Hampton & Hampton Hill Voluntary
Care Group (VCG) which was started by local people in 1974 to
be a good neighbour to residents of our area who may suffer social
isolation through infirmity, poor mobility or any other reason.
After more
than 30 years we continue the aim of our founders in providing
help and support to those in need, complementing statutory services
and those available from other providers who we work closely with.
We have been
in The Greenwood Centre since 1992 in fine modern premises which
are the base for all of our activities and the venue for many
other activities which complement the health and well being of
the community.
Our
Aims
Our founders'
objectives were to attack deprivation and social isolation wherever
they occurred in Hampton & Hampton Hill and to encourage neighbourliness
and self-help.

To quote
VCG Director, Fiona Brennan:
"In
over 30 years of service to the Hamptons, the Group, while
moving with the times, holds fast to its core function -
promoting health and wellbeing throughout the Hamptons."
