Cygnet Churchill’s new Social Hub

Cygnet Churchill has become one of our latest services to gain a new Social Hub. The project was led by Raf Hamaizia, Cygnet’s Expert by Experience Lead, and Javaid Razzaq, Service User Involvement Lead at Cygnet Hospital Bierley, who have previously organised and overseen social hub makeovers in a number of other services.

Raf and Jav were supported by Experts by Experience, team members from the hospital and staff from head office, to spend a day transforming a room with arcade machines, a new television with Playstation 5, sensory lights, posters, and lots of gadgets.

Afterwards Raf said, “I’m excited to see how this space will make a positive difference, from enhancing engagement on evenings and weekend, to having a place where service users can listen to music, make beats and record tracks, learn instruments, browse the internet, read a book or simply have a chat with a peer or staff.”
