Changing Rooms Therapy & Wellbeing Centre

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

Over the last few years, Growing Sudley has transformed the derelict building into a low carbon Therapy and Wellbeing Centre, with a view to providing an income for the Therapeutic Garden through sustainable social enterprise.  With public funding and social investment, as well as a community crowdfunder, 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, through the pandemic and subsequent financial impacts, but somehow we made it through, and 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. We often get asked, but there is no large studio space suitable for classes or group sessions. The rooms operate on a half day ‘slot’ basis to give therapists flexibility and enable a wide range of services to be available. We also operate a small number of ‘ad hoc’ bookings to support therapists who have not yet built up a client base in the area.

We have a growing community of high quality holistic and functional practitioners 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
