About us
The Balsam Centre was the vision of a single mum with mental health challenges. She, and other members of the Wincanton community, developed her vision into a joint community venture, which has been working to improve the quality of life for people living in and around Wincanton for over 22 years.Â
"The Balsam Centre is a place but it’s also a way of doing things. People coming here find new hopes, new direction and new connections. Everyone is welcome."
Michael Bainbridge, Chair of Trustees
