A multi-million pound facility for adults with learning disabilities is being officially opened today.

The Tall Trees Resource Centre at Greenfield Park - based on the Noble's Hospital site - is set to become the home of a series of adult care services which were previously spread across different locations.

Work on the £5million complex began in October 2017 and will operate alongside community services offered across the Island.

It'll be officially opened by Health and Social Care Minister, David Ashford MHK, this afternoon.
