Continuing the series of one day seminars, The RIBA Health Client Forum visited the CABE competition winning childrens health centre. The centre for children and young people opened in October 2006, and for the first time provides integrated specialist services for the children of Lewisham.
 
There are over 250 staff working in the centre, including practitioners and support teams who specialise in working with children. This centre is the first of its kind providing such a range of services for children and young people who have health or mental health, social care or educational needs.
