Changing Rooms Therapy & Wellbeing Centre

The Changing Rooms was originally the animal husbandry block for the Sudley Estate, and more recently was converted to changing rooms for sports played on Sudley Fields. In the early 2000s, it was closed by Liverpool City Council due to the cost of repairs and for many years lay empty and deteriorating.

Following many years of process, Growing Sudley transformed the derelict building into a low carbon Therapy and Wellbeing Centre, with a view to supporting the Therapeutic Garden through sustainable social enterprise.  With public funding, social investment and two community crowdfunders, a major retrofit took place between 2020-2024 using ecological construction approaches and renewable energy systems to create a healthy and low carbon building for the future. It was quite a journey, throughout the pandemic and subsequent financial impacts, but the building opened in January 2025.  All income goes to the not-for-profit garden project in a social and circular economy.

The Changing Rooms contains 7 Therapy Rooms, 4 with treatment beds and 3 smaller rooms for talking therapies. The rooms are available to hire for therapeutic and holistic practices, operating on full or part day regular slots, and also on an hourly rate basis.

We have a growing community of holistic, functional and talking therapists using the venue. If you’re a therapist or health professional interested in learning more about hiring our space, please get in touch with us at thechangingrooms@growingsudley.com 

The Changing Rooms is a beautiful venue to receive therapies, the natural surroundings and healthy eco building create a calming and restorative space for healing and growth.
