To meet the growing needs of Northolt a new Health Centre
has been established at Islips Manor, where by the conversion of
the house, which was purchased with twelve acres of land for
recreational purposes, an admirable Centre for Maternity and
Child Welfare and School Medical purposes has been arranged. A
new Centre, to be called the Ravenor Park Health Centre, is being
erected at Greenford just adjoining the present temporary Centre
at Aberdeen House. It is hoped that this Centre, which will serve
the Greenford area, will be opened in September.
