Riverside House is an ambitious social regeneration project located at a derelict and neglected grade II listed 19th Century iron masters house and grounds. The site has been repurposed into a stunning Health & Wellbeing Centre. Meaningful, social activities, in a conducive environment, can make a significant difference to the quality of our lives. This is achieved through the delivery of traditional crafts, the arts, ecology, heritage and food and nutrition. Everyone brings their unique gifts in transforming this place for the benefit of the whole community…

…Riverside House delivers its extensive programme to a diverse and inclusive community. This includes anything from social prescribing, working with people with ASD and local schools and colleges. Over the next few years the organisation will be further developing its offer to the local community with a fabulous café, craft shop, art & craft workshops and arts events, welcoming everyone to this extraordinary place.
