GP practice opens a new branch in Aberdare community hub

Today (Monday, August 15), Maendy Place GP Surgery, a branch of Abercwmboi Medical Practice, officially takes up ownership in the new Cynon Linc Community Hub in Aberdare.

The Cynon Linc Community Hub is a modern community centre that forms part of an overall network of services to support wellbeing for the communities of South Cynon.

GP Doctor Indu Nair said:  “Abercwmboi Medical Practice have been in discussion with the Cynon Linc project since 2018 regarding the relocation of our newly named Maendy Place GP Surgery within the new Cynon Linc Community Hub.

“The Hub, part of Age Connect Morgannwg, is a fantastic centre; it offers an extensive range of third sector and public health activities to support the local community, as well as a training centre.

“Once again, we’d like to thank everyone for their patience over this service development period.”

Sarah Bradley, Cwm Taf Morgannwg UHB’s Assistant Director for Primary Care added:  “Our Health Board is excited to be able to partner with Cynon Linc to secure this important development for the communities of South Cynon. 

“This new location, within the Cynon Linc Community Hub, will significantly enhance the primary care arrangements for the communities of Mountain Ash and Aberdare; bringing together our GPs and practitioners with other healthcare professionals to support the health and wellbeing of our patients.

“We encourage people to let us know what they think of their new GP facility.”
