About Royston Stress Centre Ltd

Royston Stress Centre was established in 1992 in response to local concern about the high levels of stress experienced by people in the area. It was founded on the philosophy that “All People are Unique” and have personal strengths and resources that due to stressful circumstances they may be unaware of or unable to put to best use.

The driving force behind the Royston Stress Centre was a local tranquiliser support group. They developed a steering group in partnership with the local health forum and applied for funding. This was a significant community development, set up in response to local peoples concern in order to meet local needs.

This local group went on to become our founding Board of Directors. At that time, Royston Stress Centre was a single project, which concentrated on the needs of adults in the Royston Corridor Area.

It was regarded as an innovative project, providing holistic and complimentary therapies with the positive aim of working with people to help them deal with and manage negative/high stress levels more effectively, increase their ability to make positive changes and improve their health/well being and quality of life.

The Board have continued to keep abreast of community needs, which has resulted in growth and expansion from a single project into an organisation, offering an increased range of services to meet the needs of different client groups. We now operate a number of projects under the banner of “Royston Stress Centre Ltd. These include:

Royston (Adult) Stress centre
